Do you seriously think that 20 cars are more economic than a single bus? Python performance problems are exaggerated for many use-cases (hot paths are not written in Python e.g., matching regexes happens in C code(re,regex), parsing xml too (elementtree, lxml), sqlite, numpy,scipy (C, Fortran), etc. Cython makes it trivial to drop to C level where necessary)
