Tahoe-LAFS uses some C/C++ code, however, that's primarily due to availability of libraries (and security issues with writing crypto code in Python) rather than for performance. There are not currently any plans to do a rewrite, although if anyone wanted to do that we'd certainly provide help and encouragement. The performance bottlenecks in the current implementation are primarily due to networking and protocol design. There are many possible avenues for improving those while keeping the implementation as (mostly) Python. Here's a list of all performance-related tickets: <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/query?status=!closed&keywords=~performance&group=milestone&max=200> -- Daira Hopwood ⚥
