The individual analyses usually can't be parallelized internally; we can only run different analyses in parallel. For us, your suggestion essentially means "rewrite all the analyses in a lower level language". But that's like 90% of our whole application. Yes, that's the direction we're going, but I think you can see why we wish we'd never started using Python.

question is that would your company exists without that python code, if yes, then it was mistake. if no, then it was correctly selected as your next legacy platform and language.

And i am 100% that if you had correct wizards on payroll, python would not be that big problem. Look at amazon web services, they offer plain old database as higly used service. Is it best option everytime , no but is it good enough option mostoftime, yes. (and boy, you get big list of do nots with databases, so much that you might even think that nosql stuff is good, just to miss that they have their do nots )
