Everything has performance issues but Python is at least one, if not two, orders of magnitude off of compiled languages like C++, Rust, and Go (despite Go having a garbage collector). They have various usability tradeoffs but once you get things working, at least you're not spending 10x as many cycles to do the same work as another language would need.
(Java probably is also fine; I've less personal experience there so I can't say).
