Python VM initialization alone takes ~60 million cpu cycles so even running a simple python script that uses less than 1 million cycles is prohibitively expensive.
It should be possible to make use of continuations to cache and re-use the proof for this ~60 million cycle execution segment that should be the same between all runs.

It probably makes sense to go beyond just caching it and embed it in the binary so no user ever has to run that segment.
