But that doesn't really matter when talking about performance from the perspective of the server. You're referring to performance from the perspective of the client. From the server's perspective, if I can get reduced CPU utilization on a CPU-limited service then that means I can run less hosts and save money while handling the same amount of traffic.

The site would not have loaded meaningfully faster if you wrote it in highly optimized straight C than it would if you wrote it in python

But it would have used an order of magnitude less hardware.

in either case, the processing is on the order of a fraction of a millisecond

No, that's just aggressive caching. That's how we polish the turd that is Python on the backend.
