Is that you, Sheldon?
Python, performance-wise, compiled with Nuitka, using numpy and numba, with the aid of GPU to do all the rendering, is 1/4 as fast as VB6 doing its rendering entirely on the CPU for *exactly* the same application.
Call me skeptical here, the only way what you said could be true is you put in your innermost loop where the bottleneck is doing dynamic python stuff. Anyone using numpy and the GPU properly must be faster than VB6. Crap. This is an April fools post, isn't it!?
