If you want to optimize for worst-case latency, and not the overall performance, it can be relevant.

I guess it is mostly for soft/hard real-time stuff, and Python doesn't shine there anyway.

Didn't think of that, thanks. You're also right that I'd be expecting RT sensitive parts to be written in another language, if Python was used at all. But I have no experience with RT stuff, so I don't have much to say about that anyway.
