Generating a Java program with 90% less code

This is a little off topic but is the performance mainly coming from the computation being distributed? I wrote this text parser in python a few years ago, rewrote the same thing in Java and got like a 10x speedup. It’s possible I’m a bad python programmer.

Also there's a general effect that any rewrite can improve the code quality. Same thing might have happened if you rewrote in Python.
