they also wrote uvloop [0] which is fantastic and advances the cutting edge of what can be done with modern asyncio-based Python. I saw a ~3x improvement in the throughput of a microservice I wrote when I first tried it out years ago. currently at $dayjob we just use it by default in every Python service, whether or not we expect that service to be performance-critical. it's as close as you can get to having actual magic sprinkles that make your code go faster. 0: https://github.com/MagicStack/uvloop https://github.com/MagicStack/uvloop
