In general, network latency is likely to dominate the performance
of a hobbyist-scale Webmail application coded in PHP, Perl, or
Python; to base your decision predominantly on performance is ...
well, it's not what I'd recommend.  You might as well flip a coin.

Flipping a coin isn't such a bad idea; it's possible to write good
applications with any of PHP, Perl, and Python.  Even if you restrict
yourself to Python, you can flip another coin and choose almost any
of its Web frameworks.

I salute your intent to choose a Web framework wisely.  In the ab-
sence of still more detail about your situation, requirements,
constraints, ..., I don't know how to do so beyond what I've already
written.
