Sure, within 100ms. Who cares what the performance multiples are?

That literally makes no sense. 100ms... out of what? Is it 1ms vs 100ms? 100000ms vs 100100ms?

Anyway, dubious claim since a Python interpreter will take 10s of milliseconds just to print out its version.

Do you have any evidence? I can point at techempower benchmarks showing IO bound tasks are still 10-100x faster in native languages vs Python/JS.
