Well the overhead doesen't really matter that much, who cares if you have to wait 10ms or 100ms etc. So yeah rewriting the Python bits is not worth it.

It's an entirely different use case though. In game dev you need fit your frame into 16ms or 32ms and you calling the methods hundreds or thousands of times every second etc. it all adds up.
