Python is slow. Almost all of the web applications written in
Python are slow. Zope/Plone is slow, sloow, so very slooow. Even
Google Apps is not faster. Neither is Youtube.
Facebook and Wikipedia (Mediawiki), written in PHP, are so much faster
than Python.
Okay, they probably use caching or some code compilation -- but Google
Apps and those Zope sites probably also use caching.
I've yet to see a web application written in Python which is really
fast.

Really fast, or fast enough? Because "fast enough" is all that really
matters. I don't notice any difference in HTML load time between your
various examples, what's slower is downloading all of the thumbnails
or doing AJAX calls.
I don't get what the issue is between sites that use Python and being slow,
if there is one, because there's a website online that shows the results of
a dozen or so benchmarks when comparing any two languages. Python beats PHP
in almost all the benchmarks. (it also beats almost all the other languages
(they're all scripting languages) in most of the benchmarks, lua being the
only exception i remember.)

This post is a troll written by someone who has already made up their
mind. I really don't recommend trying to argue here. I've written
plenty of fast, fast Python and there are countless Python processes
on servers out there that is not only fast but transparently so.

You're slow too. And your mum. And your car is so slow, it gets
overtaken by slugs. Whereas I'm really fast, I'll race you to the end
of the street and we'll see who wins. My mum's fast, my car's got a
super fast noisy exhaust.
So there.

You are just dead wrong about this. Bad programmers will write slow software in
any language. There are some HUGE sites using Zope. I think much of Google's
software is written in Python. I have programs that have surprised me with
their speed. If your Python program is slow, you have almost assuredly
approached it with a wrong method or algorithm. www.websafe.com is completely
written in Python and we support thousands of users uploading data
simultaneously at wire speed (and that includes AES-256 encryption on our end).

It seems there are quite a few projects aimed to improve Python's
speed and, therefore, eliminate its main limitation for mainstream
acceptance.
I just wonder what do you all think?
Will Python (and dynamic languages in general) be someday close to
compiled languages speed?
What will be the future of Psyco, Pypy, Starkiller, Ironpython and all
the other projects currently on development?

Hi, I've been thinking about Python vs. Lisp. I've been learning
Python the past few months and like it very much. A few years ago I
had an AI class where we had to use Lisp, and I absolutely hated it,

and instead expected us to learn on our own. I wasn't aware I had to
uproot my thought process to "get" it and wound up feeling like a
moron.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
