When we're using reflection in C#, we have one really popular way to create instances of objects: Activator.CreateInstance. There's another contender though, and that's Type.InvokeMember. When it comes to reflection, we know that the performance is going to be slower than using ways that are available to us at compile time... but which of these two ways to create object instances is faster?
Better question: What's faster than BOTH of these ways and available to us in DotNet reflection?
