uvloop is an ultra-fast, drop-in replacement of the built-in asyncio event loop. Together with asyncio and the power of async/await in Python 3.5, uvloop makes it easier than ever to write high-performance Python networking code.

uvloop makes asyncio incredibly fast-- 2 to 4 times faster than nodejs, or any other Python asynchronous framework. The performance of asyncio when it is uvloop-based is almost comparable to that of Go programs.

uvloop is written in Cython and is built on top of libuv, a high performance, fast and stable multiplatform asynchronous I/O library used by nodejs.

Features

  • Drop-in replacement of the built-in asyncio event loop
  • Makes asyncio incredibly fast
  • Implements all asyncio event loop APIs
