In my previous post (Performance benchmarks for LINQ vs. SqlDataReader, DataSet - Selects: Part 1 ), I ran queries using LINQ to SQL, SqlDataReader, and Strongly Typed DataSets to see how they compare in the real world. I found that LINQ is much slower than either the SqlDataReader (no surprise there) or the Strongly Typed DataSets (I actually expected the DataSet to run slower).
