The scripts i need to run but be executed with no apparent delay specially when the text transforms are simple.

How are you getting those numbers? 330 μs is still pretty fast, isn't

to me that Ruby would be able to cold start in 47 ms.

$ time python -c "pass"

real    0m0.051s
user    0m0.036s
sys     0m0.008s

$ time python3.0 -c "pass"

real    0m0.063s
user    0m0.048s
sys     0m0.004s

And yes I agree. the CPython interpreter startup times is
a stupid thing to be worrying about, especially since that
is never the bottleneck.

Python loads plenty fast enough!
