How so? The stdlib is just a collection of packages we happen to ship with
Python. Think of it as if we ship blessed packages from PyPI with Python
itself. That's it. The stdlib very much is not a hindrance to performance.
Python's design as a language is what makes it tough. We could rip out the
stdlib tomorrow and it would not change how we optimize the CPython
interpreter.

As someone who helped create a JIT for Python (Pyjion), I can tell you as a
fact that the stdlib in no way hindered our work. It was a lack of time and
simply the fact that Python is a very dynamic language.

And that's fine, but what we are all trying to do is help educate you about
some statements you made which are not accurate.
