The overhead of serialization/deserialization + process startup has a strong chance of canceling out any perf wins with Python.
That's my gut feeling too, based on past measurements in this code.
Despite the GIL, Python can get nice performance wins when using multiple threads for I/O bound tasks (including network operations). If all it is doing is writing files
The vast majority of the time is building up the strings that will then get written to the files. Lots of template substitution, object construction, etc...
