typedload VS Django

Author of typedload here!

FastAPI relies on (not so fast) pydantic, which is one of the slowest libraries in that category.

Don't expect to find such benchmarks on the pydantic documentation itself, but the competing libraries will have them.

I wrote typedload, which is significantly faster than pydantic. Just uses normal dataclasses/attrs/NamedTuple, has a better API and is pure Python!

I read all the perftests in the repo. I think they nearly all parse a structure that contains a repetition of the same or similar thing a couple hundred thousand times times and the timing function returns the min and max of 5 attempts. I just picked one example for posting.

Not a Python expert, but could the Pydantic tests be possibly not realistic and/or misleading because they are using kwargs in __init__ [1] to parse the object instead of calling the parse_obj class method [2]? According to some PEPs [3], isn't Python creating a new dictionary for that parameter which would be included in the timing? That would be unfortunate if that accounted for the difference.

Something else I think about is if a performance test doesn't produce a side effect that is checked, a smart compiler or runtime could optimize the whole benchmark away. Or too easy for the CPU to do branch prediction, etc. I think I recall that happening to me in Java in the past, but probably not happened here in Python.

>As an example, AutoCodeRover successfully fixed issue #32347 of Django.

This bug was fixed three years ago in a one-line change.[0] Presumably the fix was already in the training data.

You should not test Django's own code — it's already been tested. For example, you don't need to write a test that checks if an object is retrieved with get_object_or_404 — Django's testing suite already has that covered.

Django is a high-level Python web framework that prioritizes rapid development with clear, reusable code. Its batteries-included approach supplies most of what you need for complex database-driven websites without turning to external libraries and dealing with security and maintenance risks. In this tutorial, we will build a traditional "Hello, World" application while introducing you to the core concepts behind Django.

If you want to get into Python web development then Django can be a good place to start. https://www.djangoproject.com/

In this Article, we create our own blog called CodeCraze using Django, a popular web framework written in python. Django is designed to help developers to rapidly build their web applications from concept to completion in an efficient way. Its a batteries included framework which provides out of the box functionalities such as ORM, API Integration, authentication, form handling & many more...

There are many models of access control, however, in this guide, we are going to focus on Role Based Access Control (RBAC) and how to implement it in Django.
