That is a side effect from Python adoption at scale in the form of CPython, even though there is PyPy crying on its little corner for lack of attention.
The slowness of Python based software, and the continuous rewrite of Python into C, C++, and nowadays Rust.
> slowness of Python based software
I know of very few cases of this. For the most part I find the "slow" to be in the network/IO things. Unless one is doing heavy matrix math or something similar in pure Python, which I'd seriously question.
Some people write full blown desktop software in Python, and then get amazed how fast it flies when rewritten into a compiled language.
