This echoes some of my own experiences. Python (even CPython) waits on the network just as fast as Go (or anything else). I've had good luck writing applications in Python, then profiling them and implementing critical sections that are CPU bound in C as modules. Any sections that are memory hogs can be converted to stream processors. Lately I've started implementing the modules with Rust and the results are promising. It seems like a nice balance of developer productivity and application performance.
