This post provides a detailed performance benchmark comparison between FastAPI in Python and Golang, highlighting their efficiency in terms of request latency, throughput, CPU and memory usage. The tests include returning hardcoded objects and processing requests involving database operations with Postgres and caching with Memcached, showcasing Golang's superiority in performance. The benchmarks are performed in an AWS environment, and the author discusses various received pull requests aimed at optimizing Python code to potentially match Golang's efficiency.
