Please keep in mind that this is math. There are parts of Python that
are heavily optimized, for example reading strings from disk. Guile will
likely have a hard time to compete with that.

But for math Guile is quite a bit faster than Python :-)

(next frontier: compete with math that’s implemented via numpy — you
can find RPython implementations of the basics of numpy in the
pypy-sources:
https://foss.heptapod.net/pypy/pypy/-/tree/branch/default/pypy/module/micronumpy
)

Best wishes,
