I spent 4 years as a professional python developer.

We certainly shipped (using django) and it was certainly slow, and remains a painfully slow very successful enterprise app.

I’m not arguing that the slowness is deal breaking, but it is slow, and it does, routinely, break the SLAs its supposed to meet.

So... unusably slow? no.

...but slow? yes, it really is.

imo. your milage may vary. /shrug
