It might be worth it, if we could still write in Clojure and get good
multicore utilization and good performance overall for our application.

Is there evidence that code written/run this way will perform

No. The Python VM has a global interpreter lock that prevents parallel execution of Python bytecode. If you want to parallel processing in Python (more precisely, the CPython implementation), you must either port CPU-intensive stuff to C or Cython, or run multiple communicating CPython instances.
