I’m sure you heard a lot of people complaining that Python is so slow. I see people compare Python to C in the context of performance only, but they don’t compare in the context of fast development. Python development time is so fast because you don’t have to deal with pointers, memory management, etc.

This is one of the reasons we use Python in our company. In most cases, development time is more important than performance. Python has a great community and great libraries out there that work for what you need most of the time. That being said, I will talk about Cython in this article to make your Python code fast.
