What's the point of Python if it's slow?
(thelemmy.club)
Console? good, GUI? good, game dev? use Godot engine with its similar language Gdscript, but what else? Ive been seeing AI, Data Science stuff, but whats the point if ita slow?
This probably depends on what CPU someone has, someone with a higher-end CPU (higher-IPC/higher clockspeed) probably will have a better experience.
On older/lower-end CPUs it is more common to see when something is single-threaded especially when it's also interpreted. Particularly any type of generator/loader, filter, renderer, live audio. Which to be clear, is from a user perspective.
I think with newer CPUs Python's current speed will be less of a problem but if your intention is game dev I think this is not enough.
Yeah you shouldn't be game deving with a scripting language. There's your problems!
