Also, pretty sure Python was called out as one of the main reasons why some hundred of Google Video engineers couldn't keep up with YouTube prior to Google's purchase.

Python might not be the most performant, but once you need the scale, it's a good problem to have because at that point, your product has already made it.

Do you have an article about that? I would be interested to learn more about it.

Sadly the page isn't available on Google Books anymore[0], you might still be able to get the book itself. There also might be a Hacker News thread on it too or it'll be on Reddit. It's one of those places I'll have seen it on.
