In this webcast, Joseph Albahari will demonstrate some exciting new features that turn LINQPad into an essential tool for writing and performance-tuning Entity Framework queries.

We'll see how you can now:

• Point LINQPad to an Entity Framework conceptual model in a few clicks
• Interactively execute LINQ queries against the model - with full autocompletion
• Get a full SQL translation for every Entity Framework query
• Switch between Entity Framework and LINQ to SQL DataContexts, to compare results and efficiency
• Know when database round-trips occur
• Interactively execute ESQL queries

There will also be time for questions and an opportunity to make feature requests.
