> Python and that's the most popular programming language there is at the moment. Ordering the top 3 languages is “subjective”, let’s say that they are Javascript, python and java. And out of these, python is 10x slower than the other two.

Soon to be only 5x slower. There's some serious performance improvements going on in CPython.

  Unless they go with a JIT compiler, no real closing of performance gap will happen.

10x is really being charitable.
