[Tutor] Python fast enough for ad server?

[OkaMthembo]

Hi guys,

I need to write an ad-serving application and i'm using Win XP as my dev
platform. Naturally, i want it to be as painless as possible and i was
thinking of writing it 100% in Python. However, i have not written any big
apps in the language and i wonder if Python would have the performance or
scale fast enough to a large user base. I also reluctantly think of using
Python and Java, but Jython only supports Python 2.2 at the moment (same as
my other option, Boost) and i'm using Python 2.5. what does everyone think?

Best Regards,
