No, you’re not wrong at all.

This is much more in the original spirit for dealing with the inevitable issues 
where Python just doesn’t cut it performance-wise. The idea was to do 
everything in Python, and where there was a bottleneck, write a C module for 
that function and integrate it using ctypes. 

So could someone from the Designate team do the following: isolate the part(s) 
of the process where Go kicks Python’s butt, create small Go packages to handle 
them, and then use gopy to integrate it? I think there would be little or no 
controversy with this approach, as it’s much less disruptive to the overall 
community.
