Why your FastAPI (or Flask) App performs poorly with high loads

1. 1Run load tests on your FastAPI or Flask app to identify performance bottlenecks
2. 2Use tools like Locust or Apache JMeter to simulate high traffic and measure response times
3. 3Configure your app to use connection pooling or async database drivers to improve database performance
4. 4Optimize your app's routing and middleware to reduce overhead and improve request handling
5. 5Apply caching mechanisms to reduce the load on your database and improve response times
