Who knows, maybe Python was being compared. You can have a nice HTTP server in 
Python in 0 lines of code, by running: python -m SimpleHTTPServer   :)

Exactly, for example spawn a few processes with uWSGI and the Python script 
doesn't have to deal with multithreading or even use greenlets. So in most of 
the cases there is no GIL issue... unless you really need multithreading for a 
fast web service keeping internal states and locks, entering a no-python land.

Yeah, a sane templating engine is a must. Once you have those things covered, 
you can win people over by playing to the performance tune. They love that.
Of course having a big traffic site using it would help a lot.
