Which is why Dropbox uses 100% of the CPU while syncing? It's pretty clear that trying to handle thousands of files is not a trivial operation. Sure, Python can do the job, but something native will probably do the job faster.

No, not really. I'd rather the software work well, and I'd rate Dropbox as "passable" rather than "great".
