Reading this reminds me the hypothetical dilemma of (...)

If one solution based in n dependencies(client apis) would need to 
optimize it's system(in dependencies too) to face the massive hits of 
search engines in the indexation of n millions of pages with tracking 
integrated at several levels(...) ... how would it be solved? ... It 
would turn at n volts(...) and it would need to decrease the voltage(...)

This is somehow integrated in what I wrote in the post with the subject 
'python team(...)'

To put this working and optimized is really fascinating (...)
