This is cool!

I'm actually kind of shocked it performs better than gin (which is based on httprouter). Are you using a specialized prefix tree for the routes?

I'm not sure this is the case, at least not according to the benchmarks in the gin-gonic/gin repo.

In that discussion the author of gin mentions gin has a zero allocation router as well https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin/issues/249

On mobile right now, will look at the gin/echo benchmarks later (especially if the gin benchmarks compare the fasthttp engine of echo)

All echo benches have been commented out, last change about a year ago.

Tests do not use echo's fasthttp engine.

That GH issue is almost exactly a year old and still open, with no recent comments.
