At my previous employer, moving from .NET Framework 4.6.1 to .NET Core 3.1 resulted in response latency of one of the particularly heavy requests going from ~2s to ~300ms :)
The difference between 4.8 and 8 can easily be tenfold, depending on the workload and bottlenecks (if it's a slow DB query - EF Core might compile it to a more efficient variant in, say, EFC 8, but if it's linear scan - not much can be done).
