Using Python for high-performance anything is a bad choice. You will quickly bottleneck at the code execution speed, even if it's just to query some cache.
If you don't agree, make a simple "hello world" endpoint and see how many req/sec you get. Then compare to Rust / Java / C++ / Go. It will be radically different.

Also, "high performance" is a poorly ambiguous term. https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r18&hw=ph&test=db https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r18&hw=... https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r18&hw=ph&test=plaintext https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r18&hw=...
