I'll be honest, the performance issue is almost never the language used.
You can write Python code that's very fast for almost any usecase (using numpy/pandas/vaex/polars/etc). Similarly for Java.
The main thing is the way people use Python/Java is generally extremely inefficient - the code is full of cache misses because of how the idiomatic way to use those languages conflicts with how CPU caches work.
