where python is slower?

I'm humor impaired this morning.  Do I interpret this to slyly advocate
Python because it's so much easier to develop in Pyton over C++?

Or is it a statement that C++ really would be that much faster,
even though the numbers suggest that it would be at most about
twice as fast?
