Specific performance question - Python vs. Java

[reinsn]

Hi,

I have got a specific question on performance: Is the overhead of
object creation in Python lower than in Java? I mean, I would argue, in
Java by object creation, the complete class is the model and all
methods and attributes are generated for the object.
In Python, methods and objects are only generated, if reached: so could
this represent a performance advantage for Python?

Thanks!
