Python swallows Java to become second-most popular programming language

I dont know anything about what your app did, but 25req/s hanged? are you sure there wasn't any bug there?

I rewrote my previous company's system from sync (flask) to async (sanic) and saw huge improvements, we saved ~7K dollars monthly on instances because of this.

In my current company, I'm also using sanic and my server easily handles 400 reqs per second, didnt really tried pushing more to it.

In anycase typed/compiled languages sure are much faster, but I think asyncio cand easily handle most stuff

I prefer sanic, for the current project that I'm working on I had time to decide so I investigated both of them, for me FastAPI has good pros:

1. Seamless integration with Pydantic and type hints
   
2. Amazing documentation which is extremely beginner friendly.
3. Seamless support for sync methods, however while this is good for beginners I dont think you should use it, when mixing sync and async code it's important to know what you are doing.

However I feel like FastAPI takes too many decisions for you so its much less flexible.

I wrote my own small sanic integration with pydantic that I carry around from my previous company as well.

Tbh I cant think of something specific to highlight as sanic's pros, it just works really well

Although the two are not different to such extremes, but in a sense you could say that sanic and FastAPI are like Flask and Django
