DllImport or LoadLibrary for best performance

Question

I have external .DLL file with fast assembler code inside. What is the best way to call functions in this .DLL file to get best performance?

Answer 1

I think DLLImport and LoadLibrary have different goals. If you use native .dll, you should use DllImport. If you use .NET assembly, you should use LoadAssembly.

Actually, you can dynamically load native assembly too, see this example: dynamically-calling-an-unmanaged-dll-from-.net
