What would the benefit of that be?
The target audience, which is sysadmins and system engineers, is familiar with
C, and the project stands to benefit from that expertise.
Not to mention that C will give you maximum performance, short of writing IPS
in assembler.
The fact that some portions already had to be (re)written in C is proof enough
that Python is not the best solution for the end product.
It is only proof that *some* portions are better written in C, it is not
proof that the product as a whole would be better written in C.
We welcome contributions of course if you're willing to work on
performance-sensitive areas.
Otherwise, our development team is better spent on other issues.
