why would you want to? if you are performance bound with Python code, you can pick up a 20-50x performance improvement by switching language.

  Right, but if there's only a small portion of my code that does string search and it's a hot path, it would still be much much much more convenient to access SIMD-based string search code direct from Python rather than writing the code (LLM or not) in another language and then construct bindings (LLM or not).

    You can use cython and call C SIMD code from it.

    2 problems. 1. Python's data types are all bad for performance 2. once you optimize once part, a new part will be the bottleneck
