Benchmarking programming languages and web frameworks

FastHTTP (Go)

FastHTTP is a low-level, high-performance HTTP framework for Go. It is designed to be faster than the standard net/http package and is optimized for high performance and low memory usage.

This benchmark tests how fast a framework can perform concurrent HTTP requests, I/O operations, and JSON de/serialization.

MedianP99

Framework	Requests per second Indicates how many requests per second the framework can handle. (higher is better)	Latency Indicates how long it takes to process a request. (lower is better)	Stability Indicates how stable the framework is under load: median / P99 latency (higher is better)	Memory Indicates how much memory (RAM) the framework uses. (lower is better)
Go v1.22 / FastHTTP v1	9774	1.4 ms	2.97 %	15.6 MB
Go v1.20 / FastHTTP v1	9344	1.5 ms	3.12 %	11.8 MB

Garbage Collection

Go, often referred to as Golang, is a statically typed, compiled programming language designed at Google. It is syntactically similar to C, but with memory safety, garbage collection, structural typing, and CSP-style concurrency. Go is designed to be simple, efficient, and readable, with a focus on modern software design and concurrent programming. It is widely used in production at Google and many other organizations worldwide and is particularly favored for building network servers, data pipelines, and even command-line tools.
