...data structures, were re-wrapped as Python extension modules As Python was used more widely, extending and customizing in-house software became a lot easier. By writing in Python, users could recombine wrapped software components and extend or enhance standard CG applications needed for each new image production run.

One persistent criticism on scripting languages is that their performance is inadequate for some tasks. Techniques like program analysis and advanced compiler technology may be able to eliminate part of this problem, probably in combination with some form of optional static typing. The challenge is to...
