Independent TechEmpower benchmarks show **FastAPI** applications running under Uvicorn as <a href="https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=test&runid=7464e520-0dc2-473d-bd34-dbdfd7e85911&hw=ph&test=query&l=zijzen-7" class="external-link" target="_blank">one of the fastest Python frameworks available</a>, only below Starlette and Uvicorn themselves (used internally by FastAPI).

But this example is still valid and it shows how to interact with the internal components.

We can also use this same approach to access the request body in an exception handler.

All we need to do is handle the request inside a `try`/`except` block:

 *     .url("http://publicobject.com/helloworld.txt")
 *     .build();
 * ```
 *
 * ## Force a Cache Response
 *
 * Sometimes you'll want to show resources if they are available immediately, but not otherwise.
 * This can be used so your application can show *something* while waiting for the latest data to be
 * downloaded. To restrict a request to locally-cached resources, add the `only-if-cached`
 * directive:
 *

      this.safeMinChar = (char) safeMin;
      this.safeMaxChar = (char) min(safeMax, Character.MIN_HIGH_SURROGATE - 1);
    }
  }
