Performance is almost always the wrong reason to pick a language. Back in 2008 we were porting a web app from C++ to Python and expecting a performance hit yet parts of it ended up much quicker. The simpler new code let us find and remove whole chunks of work it was doing for absolutely no reason.
often the wrong reason to pick a language, but also often a valid reason NOT to pick a language imo you know. the outliers.
