      Python is often used as (very useful!) glue for calling CUDA, C, C++, Fortran, etc… codes.

      So, if you are thinking about the sort of “business logic” that’s often Python, but the performance comes from the parts that are usually not.

        well you'd be surprised how much of that glue becomes logic and eats up the ground water.
