The main issue with net/http is that it generates a lot of garbage which is definitely going to show up in your profile if you're handling a lot of requests per second.

Allocation pressure imposed by net/http has never been a top K source of profile CPU burn in any service I’ve ever written, and I’ve written plenty of high-performance, high-QPS services. fasthttp is rarely if ever a good idea.
