 ## Adding timing middleware
 
 The `add_timing_middleware` function takes the following arguments:
 
-* `app: FastAPI` : The app to which to add the timing middleware
-* `record: Optional[Callable[[str], None]] = None` : The callable to call on the generated timing messages.
-If not provided, defaults to `print`; a good choice is the `info` method of a `logging.Logger` instance 
-* `prefix: str = ""` : A prefix to prepend to the generated route names. This can be useful for, e.g., 
-distinguishing between mounted ASGI apps.
-* `exclude: Optional[str] = None` : If provided, any route whose generated name includes this value will not have its
-timing stats recorded.
