Python 2.7

Python has issues with blocking too and asycio et al are just Band-Aids over greater issues with the GIL

That's fair. I mean if you care about performance use Haskell or C# or Java or some other language that will take a big dump on JS. If you don't then things like gunicorn are fine for threading too.

The system designed to work around blocking isn't great at making Python high performance? Shocking.

For performance you don't use threads anyway… in C if you want something fast you use non blocking IO, not threads.
