right, but only if you are CPU limited (which is likely). The switching off of branches and not looping over all of them as mentioned would help you if you are I/O limited, even in python.

In PyPy both numpy and cppyy will be at the interpreter level and there it would be possible to short-cut. For PyROOT, it's not a given that a dependency on numpy is a good idea. Rather, an additional python extension module on top of both would then have to be written.
