This comment contains some fairly pejorative language I can assure you that there are real-world high performance python systems with per-event budgets of far less than 1ms being used for critical systems in large organisations. Sometimes with the help of compiled components, but made understandable by being coordinated in python. Of course these systems are atypical, but the idea that ‘actual’ engineers always use c/Java, while python is just a scripting language is just ignorant
