i4o, indexed LINQ to Objects
LINQ to Objects is a great improvement in .NET 3.5 to query in-memory
collections. It offers a nice declarative query syntax, strong-typing
and support for a rich set of operations. One of the things that LINQ
to Objects does not offer is indexing. Indexing collections of objects
could greatly improve the performance of queries. Some people realized
this and Aaron Erickson even extended LINQ to Objects to provide
support for indexing. i4o (indexes for objects) is the solution he
proposes. i4o is available on CodePlex and described in Aaron's weblog.
