Memory Models: Understand the Impact of Low-Lock Techniques in Multithreaded Apps
Because the use of low-lock techniques in your application significantly increases the likelihood of introducing hard-to-find bugs, it is best to use them only when absolutely necessary. Here Vance Morrison demonstrates the limitations and subtleties low-lock techniques so that if you are forced to use them you have a better chance of using them correctly.

How to Write High-Performance C# Code
Writing code that runs quickly is sometimes at odds with writing code quickly. C.A.R. Hoare, computer science luminary and discoverer of the QuickSort algorithm, famously proclaimed, 'Premature optimization is the root of all evil.' The extreme programming design principle of 'You Aren't Gonna Need It' (YAGNI) argues against implementing any features, including performance optimizations, until they're needed.
