A contemporary approach to crafting concise methods in .NET involves using expression-bodied methods. The conventional or expanded method appears as follows:

public Person CreatePerson()
{
    return base.CreatePerson<Person>();
}

Converting this method to an expression-bodied method results in the following:

public Person CreatePerson() => base.CreatePerson<Person>();

I was curious to determine if utilizing expression-bodied methods would result in better performance.

Benchmark Results

The results below indicate that the performance difference is negligible and challenging to discern.

I recommend using either of the ways to create a method depending on the coding standards for your team.
