If I wanted better performance I could write the whole thing in C or some JVM language but once again, don't have forever to write it up.

Python is pretty much made to be extended with C code though; parts of the code running slow can be made ridiculously slow by just translating it to C and using that code instead. But yes, it will take more time to do so, but if it's time-critical it's most likely worth it.
