I'm fairly certain that this is false, and am working on proving it. In the cases that Numba is optimised for it's already faster than plausible C++ implementations of the same kernels.

Numba is basically another language embedded in Python. It (sometimes severely) modifies the semantics of code.


it's not faster, it's about as fast as C++ compiled with O3 optimizations. which is great and also much more likely to be true.
