There is no real problem with python and multi threading (web2py includes a multithreaded server) except for one issue with the Glbal Interpreter Lock (i.e. Python multi threaded apps get slower, not faster the most cores you have unless you lock python on a core, for example by using a virtual machine). This is not a practical concern with typical web hosting service where you get assigned one VM. It is still faster than rails as long as I can tell.
The issues you raise are relavent for high performance computing not for web development. web2py runs with Jython out of the box and it does not have the GIL problem but Jython is very slow. Perhaps things will change in the future. I know Jruby is faster than CRuby.
