I'm not saying abandon Python for Java, I'm saying if you'll optimize Python, first optimize single-thread Python performance, before we get to parallel processing, because extracting performance out of parallel is hard, while languages like Java (and JavaScript recently) show they there's plenty more to be gained yet from that single thread.
