Beating gcc/clang/icc is not a trivial task. One can engineer the pair `{benchmark compiler pass}` in such a manner that they show a speedup, but over a benchmark suite say like the SPEC suite, general community consensus is that

My claim is that there is no additional information that Python provides as opposed to C that would make it faster. And hence, the only conclusion I have is either they have supercharged their compiler for that particular benchmark OR they

For postdocs, the situation is even worse. Postdocs typically get paid ~1.5x that of a PhD student. And in some fields that are closer to the Basic Sciences, one (virtually) cannot land a permanent research position without spending 2+ year
