Performance for your Cursor-built FastAPI app
Expert performance for FastAPI apps built with Cursor. We audit Cursor-generated FastAPI code for performance issues. From $19.
Cursor issues we find in FastAPI projects
Problems specific to Cursor's code generation patterns when building FastAPI apps.
Exposed API keys in client code
Cursor often places sensitive keys and secrets directly in client-side components or .env files without the NEXT_PUBLIC prefix distinction, making them accessible in the browser.
Missing input validation on API routes
Server actions and API routes generated by Cursor frequently accept user input without sanitization or schema validation, opening the door to injection attacks.
Unhandled async errors
Cursor wraps code in try/catch inconsistently. Failed API calls, database queries, and file operations often crash the app silently or show raw error messages to users.
FastAPI performance issues we check for
Performance-specific FastAPI problems that need attention before production.
Blocking calls inside async endpoints
Synchronous database calls, file operations, or HTTP requests inside async def endpoints block the entire event loop, making your API unresponsive under load.
No rate limiting on public endpoints
Public API endpoints (especially AI wrapper endpoints that call OpenAI or similar) have no rate limiting, so a single user can run up massive costs.
Database connections not pooled
Creating a new database connection on every request instead of using a connection pool, causing connection exhaustion under load.

Frequently asked questions
Can you performance my Cursor-built FastAPI app?
Yes. We regularly handle performance for FastAPI projects built with Cursor. We understand Cursor's code patterns and the specific FastAPI issues they introduce. Our review covers the full stack from frontend to backend.
What FastAPI performance issues does Cursor typically create?
Common performance issues in Cursor-generated FastAPI code include: exposed api keys in client code, missing input validation on api routes, unhandled async errors. On the FastAPI side, we often find: blocking calls inside async endpoints, no rate limiting on public endpoints, database connections not pooled.
