## Benchmarks and speed { #benchmarks-and-speed }

When you check the benchmarks, it is common to see several tools of different types compared as equivalent.

Specifically, to see Uvicorn, Starlette and FastAPI compared together (among many other tools).

The simpler the problem solved by the tool, the better performance it will get. And most of the benchmarks don't test the additional features provided by the tool.

The hierarchy is like:

    // Execute the runnable immediately. Because of scheduling this may end up getting called before
    // some of the previously added runnables, but we're OK with that. If we want to change the
    // contract to guarantee ordering among runnables we'd have to modify the logic here to allow
    // it.
    executeListener(runnable, executor);
  }

  /**
   * Runs this execution list, executing all existing pairs in the order they were added. However,

There are several alternatives, including:

* [Uvicorn](https://www.uvicorn.dev/): a high performance ASGI server.
* [Hypercorn](https://hypercorn.readthedocs.io/): an ASGI server compatible with HTTP/2 and Trio among other features.
* [Daphne](https://github.com/django/daphne): the ASGI server built for Django Channels.
* [Granian](https://github.com/emmett-framework/granian): A Rust HTTP server for Python applications.
