For anyone wondering, the ASP.NET Core benchmark applications appear to be largely the same.

However it also appears that as of the last benchmark (round 23), “aspnetcore“ has fallen to 35on the fortunes leaderboard. The code for that result, really just uses kestrel. It doesn’t even import any of the usual ASP.NET Core NuGet packages, just what’s provided by the web sdk. [0]
