uvloop is a fast, drop-in replacement of the built-in asyncio event loop. uvloop is implemented in Cython and uses libuv under the hood.
The project documentation can be found here. Please also check out the wiki.
Performance
uvloop makes asyncio 2-4x faster.

The above chart shows the performance of an echo server with different message sizes. The sockets benchmark uses loop.sock_recv() and loop.sock_sendall() methods; the streams benchmark uses asyncio high-level streams, created by the asyncio.start_server() function; and the protocol benchmark uses loop.create_server() with a simple echo protocol. Read more about uvloop in a blog post about it.
Installation
uvloop requires Python 3.5 or greater and is available on PyPI. Use pip to install it:
$ pip install uvloop
Using uvloop
To make asyncio use uvloop, you can install the uvloop event loop policy:
import asyncio import uvloop asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(uvloop.EventLoopPolicy())
or, starting with uvloop 0.12:
import uvloop uvloop.install()
Building From Source
To build uvloop, you’ll need Python 3.5 or greater:
Clone the repository:
$ git clone --recursive git@github.com:MagicStack/uvloop.git $ cd uvloop
Create a virtual environment and activate it:
$ python3.7 -m venv uvloop-dev $ source uvloop-dev/bin/activate
Install development dependencies:
$ pip install -r requirements.dev.txt
Build and run tests:
$ make $ make test
