But when checking benchmarks and comparisons you should keep the following in mind.

## 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).

    correct_username_bytes = b"stanleyjobson"
    is_correct_username = secrets.compare_digest(
        current_username_bytes, correct_username_bytes
    )
    current_password_bytes = credentials.password.encode("utf8")
    correct_password_bytes = b"swordfish"
    is_correct_password = secrets.compare_digest(
        current_password_bytes, correct_password_bytes
    )

    * Si on compare Uvicorn, il faut le comparer à d'autre applications de serveurs comme Daphne, Hypercorn, uWSGI, etc.
* **Starlette** :

### Working with Python *enumerations*

The value of the *path parameter* will be an *enumeration member*.

#### Compare *enumeration members*

You can compare it with the *enumeration member* in your created enum `ModelName`:

```Python hl_lines="17"
{!../../../docs_src/path_params/tutorial005.py!}
```

#### Get the *enumeration value*

#### Fix it with `secrets.compare_digest()`

But in our code we are actually using `secrets.compare_digest()`.

In short, it will take the same time to compare `stanleyjobsox` to `stanleyjobson` than it takes to compare `johndoe` to `stanleyjobson`. And the same for the password.

    correct_username_bytes = b"stanleyjobson"
    is_correct_username = secrets.compare_digest(
        current_username_bytes, correct_username_bytes
    )
    current_password_bytes = credentials.password.encode("utf8")
    correct_password_bytes = b"swordfish"
    is_correct_password = secrets.compare_digest(
        current_password_bytes, correct_password_bytes
    )

    )
    current_password_bytes = credentials.password.encode("utf8")

    )

## Benchmarks and speed

#### Das Problem beheben mittels `secrets.compare_digest()`

Aber in unserem Code verwenden wir tatsächlich `secrets.compare_digest()`.

Damit wird, kurz gesagt, der Vergleich von `stanleyjobsox` mit `stanleyjobson` genauso lange dauern wie der Vergleich von `johndoe` mit `stanleyjobson`. Und das Gleiche gilt für das Passwort.
