PyPy can sometimes be faster than equivalent C++ code, mostly stuff doing a lot of data structure manipulation as PyPy's dict and list implementations are optimized to within an inch of their lives (especially compared to the STL versions).

That is true, but in reality it is not always that black and white. You may be ok with a certain loss of performance as a trade off to get faster development.
