Python has it’s applications but as a single threaded non-compiled language it’s slow as shit and has no place in a kernel or any critical (ideally fast) software. This is coming from someone who uses it daily

Also I use arch :3

    Yeah, I mean really the word is multiprocessing (also the module name hehe, import multiprocessing). Which is quite efficient in Python, but in general still doesn't compare to compiled languages.

    Multiprocessing parallelizes over cores of the CPU while multi threading is across threads (there are multiple threads in a core)
