Hey guys,

I'm working on a basic DBMS as a pet project and planning to prototype in Python.

I figure there's a reason there are only a few Python databases, and my gut agrees that my favorite language will be too slow to act as an honest performing database, but I'm looking forward to using it to learn what I need quickly.

Would someone please contradict me? Is Python as ill-suited right now for this sort of thing as I think?
