FastAPI vs Go vs Rust Under Fire: I Threw 100,000 Brute-Force Attacks at Them.

📰 Medium · Python

Compare the performance of FastAPI, Go, and Rust under brute-force attacks to determine the most resilient framework

intermediate Published 15 Jun 2026
Action Steps
  1. Run a brute-force attack simulation using tools like Locust or Apache JMeter to test the performance of FastAPI, Go, and Rust
  2. Configure the simulation to send 100,000 requests to each framework
  3. Test the performance of each framework under load using metrics like response time and error rate
  4. Compare the results to determine which framework is most resilient to brute-force attacks
  5. Apply security measures like rate limiting and IP blocking to protect against brute-force attacks
Who Needs to Know This

Backend developers and cybersecurity teams can benefit from understanding the performance differences between these frameworks to make informed decisions about their tech stack
