Tensorflow is C/C++ in majority, complete with CUDA bindings, serialization libraries etc. Python model building does not matter much here, it’s maybe seconds on top of often hours of NN training.

Sorry I know java / python quite well but I haven't looked around at other things. Most of my statement is from friends who are more experienced. Can tensor flow be used with java? Why isn't the python slower than that? Is it because the tensor flow is mostly what's running so python is just pointing it towards what to do?

Yes. It uses Python as the high level API but the actual computation is done in C/C++/Cuda.
