How can I use async in LINQ queries?

You can use the ToListAsync() method from Entity Framework to execute LINQ queries asynchronously.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

var results = await dbContext.YourEntities.Where(x => x.Condition).ToListAsync();

What if I want to use it with a custom query?

You can use FromSqlRaw with ToListAsync() like this:

var results = await dbContext.YourEntities.FromSqlRaw("SELECT * FROM YourTable WHERE Condition").ToListAsync();

Are there any performance considerations?

Yes, using async can improve performance by freeing up threads while waiting for I/O operations, but be mindful of context switching.
