GET requests generally outperform POST requests due to the straightforward manner in which data is appended to the URL.

The simplicity of appending values in the URL makes GET more efficient in terms of performance.

On the other hand, POST requests involve including values in the HTTP body, which takes more time.

One of the limitations of POST is that it supports only string data types.
