  HTTP is only really good for clientside. For Serverside there the urllib could be improved, since the parsing is full python and hasn't changed much. The GIL ist in the process of getting solved.

  Python for analyzing data and crunching numbers? Awesome!

  Python for serving HTTP? This could get expensive—the why, what, and choices teams have in deploying AI applications.
