Fasthttp is designed for high performance edge cases that require a consistent low millisecond response time. It can handle thousands of small to medium requests per second. However, fasthttp may not be the best choice for all use cases. Net/http is easier to use and can handle more cases. In fact, for most cases, users won’t even notice a performance difference. Here are some of the important points to consider when choosing between fasthttp and net/http: * Fasthttp works with RequestHandler functions instead of objects implementing Handler interface. * Fasthttp allows setting response headers and writing response body in any order. Unlike net/http, fasthttp doesn’t restrict users to setting headers first and then writing the body. * Fasthttp doesn’t provide ServeMux like net/http. However, there are more powerful third-party routers and web frameworks with fasthttp support.
