Yes it is. But of course you can't sat that "Python is faster than C++".
We found that the code to do this, written in the most natural way, is a
lot faster in Python. However, if you optimze the code, C++ gets almost
as fast.

In other benchmarks C++ outperforms Python and is 10 or 100 times
faster.

There are enough C++ experts here to do it. The point is another.
