In a case where a breaking change affects performance, how should the issue be addressed without rolling back the EF update?

When a breaking change in EF affects performance, the issue should be addressed by optimizing the affected queries to improve performance. This involves analyzing the queries, identifying bottlenecks, and applying optimization techniques such as index optimization or query restructuring. Migrating to a newer version of the EF framework might not directly address performance issues caused by breaking changes. Rewriting the entire application or deploying additional hardware resources are extreme measures and may not be necessary if the performance issue can be resolved through query optimization.
