📄 Description

Project

picows - ultra-fast WebSocket clients and servers for asyncio

Why This Project Is Awesome

Hidden Gem - Exceptional quality, solves niche problems elegantly

How It Differs

picows is exceptionally fast! It was born as a part of an algorithmic trading project where clients have to process more than 10k messages per second (typically very small, less than 512 bytes) during market activity spikes and without accumulating latency or any opaque message queuing. There is simply no other library in Python that is up to this task.

That being said, picows performs great across all message sizes.
There is a separate repo with the benchmarks here
