Ummm... If you look in the actual lib/ directory where the work happens, you will see a bunch of high-performance C written in and generated by Acado, which is a very efficient optimization framework. It does look like there is a bunch of python logic for managing that controller, but a significant amount of work seems to have gone into performance optimization. I am curious how they prevent the Android GC from causing problematically long pauses, though.
