This type of response is why I gave up on Python entirely. Not to pile on you pekk, it isn't your fault, but it is a tone... defensive apologist... "first of all there is no problem, and if there was a problem... it is that Python is too awesome"
As someone who has had to ship stuff using multiprocess & gevent to actually meet real world scaling needs -- and integrating them with C code and communicating to a C++ application via ZMQ (inprocess by sharing the object) ... the sad fact is once we started to tackle really hard problems in Python that aren't pre-solved via a nice library all those early advantages fell away and we craved the blessed simplicity of C++ (note: sarcasm, C++ isn't simple, but it was far simpler than the Frankenstein's monster we built).
