But, given LuaJIT and V8, it's obviously possible to generate high-performance code without such restrictions. As for PyPy adoption, it's hindered more by the lack of API compatibility with CPython native extensions.

Yes - Julia also has a pretty good JIT too, but doesn't have a great story on AOT compiled binaries.

If you're finding it easy to write a quick command line tool in python, but end up rewriting it in another language for size/performance/self contained deployment, this may be a good fit.
