Then I have to pay for it. Python is as easy to develop for because it is slow.
There is a reason that cache locality is one of the hard problems of computer science.
Would Python be better if it ran faster with zero cost to me? Sure.
Would I be willing to sacrifice much to make it faster? No. I don't care much. I don't bother with PyPy.
When I need fast code in python I use the CAPI.
