C++ or Python

Hey /prog/, I'm a biochemist building a website for a Biology project, and I'm going to have to include NCBI's BLAST+ tools in it eventually. So I was just wondering, would it be better to use the c++ tools that they offer, or would it be better to try to re-write everything in python, since that's what the rest of the backend is written in?

Of course SEPPLES will be faster than FIOC in most implementations, but SEPPLES comes with extra complexity which can be tiring. If you only know those languages, you could for example write the resource intensive parts in the lower-level language (SEPPLES), and the scripting parts in the higher-level language (FIOC). It's all about the trade-offs.
