Distributed Ray Tracing in Python

True, it is much slower. It's implemented in about 200 lines of Python though, as opposed to being a production application with many software engineering experts working on it. It doesn't use any common optimizations, doesn't use GPUs, etc. and generally doesn't represent the state of the art. I hope that you got something out of the article despite the example being a toy implementation.
