title: Super fast way to compare if two strings are equal
body: <p>Obviously, in Python to check whether two strings are equal you can do:</p>
  
  <p><code>"hello word" == "hello world"</code></p>
  
  <p>But what if you are comparing really long strings (in excess of 1m characters)? Is there a built in way or any libraries in python that can do this much faster; perhaps utilizing the Karp–Rabin algorithm or something similar?</p>
  
  <p>Or, under the hood, is stringA == stringB actually the fastest method? </p>
