Would love to see benchmarks comparing this to FastAPI?

Thanks for this project - will definitely be keeping my eye on it!

FastAPI is an entire web framework using ASGI, whereas this is just a WSGI server.

You could compare FastAPI vs FastWSGI+Flask or any other WSGI framework.

I doubt that, the project name is FastWSGI, not FastASGI.
FastAPI is a framework, the server underneath FastAPI would be uvicorn, which is also based on libuv
Actually you can use any ASGI-compatible web server[1] with FastAPI, uvicorn is generally preferred though because it is apparently the fastest.
