I needed to improve perfomance of some numerical computations in an existing Python script. The only choices felt like C and Fortran. I tried Rust at first but went back to C when I realized I was spending more time appeasing Rust than solving the actual problem, which wasn't really complicated enough to gain significant benefit from Rust's features.
