Investigating Pydantic v2's Bold Performance Claims

• pytest-benchmark

  1 1,126 5.8 Python

  py.test fixture for benchmarking code

  To test this, we will setup some benchmarks using pytest-benchmark, some sample data with a simple schema, and compare results between Python's dataclass, Pydantic v1, and v2.

• pydantic-core

  12 1,095 9.2 Python

  Core validation logic for pydantic written in rust

  

  I encourage you to checkout the official benchmarks for more realistic and detailed examples, and, as always, YMMV.

• InfluxDB

  Collect and Analyze Billions of Data Points in Real Time. Manage all types of time series data in a single, purpose-built database. Run at any scale in any environment in the cloud, on-premises, or at the edge.

  

• rust

  779 85,600 10.0 Rust

  Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

  

  For those unfamiliar, Pydantic is currently implemented in Python and this rewrite shifts most of the code to Rust, a systems programming language touted as "blazingly fast" and safe.

• powertools-lambda-python

  9 2,320 9.6 Python

  A developer toolkit to implement Serverless best practices and increase developer velocity.

  

  It's worth noting that these improvements will also impact other libraries and frameworks that rely on Pydantic, such as FastAPI and AWS Lambda Powertools, which could deliver some transitive performance improvements to various projects that don't directly depend on Pydantic themselves.

• fastapi

  104 63,072 9.5 Python

  FastAPI framework, high performance, easy to learn, fast to code, ready for production

  If you work with backend APIs in Python, you've probably used or heard of Pydantic, perhaps from FastAPI. The library advertises itself as "data validation and settings management using Python type annotations" and it makes (de)serialization of data a breeze.1
