Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

how does this work?
But often maintainers also upload Releases with builds of their software, e.g. like here: https://github.com/microsoft/vswhere/releases

/ // This file was about 400 lines before we started adding these comments. // You might think that's way too much code to do something as simple // as finding a few library and executable paths. I agree. However, // Microsoft's own solution to this problem, called "vswhere", is a // mere EIGHT THOUSAND LINE PROGRAM, spread across 70 files, // that they posted to github unironically. // // I am not making this up: https://github.com/Microsoft/vswhere

Alternatively, try pygfx for ThreeJS graphics in Python leveraging wgpu. It works great in Notebooks through notebook-rfb. https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx
If you're adventurous, figure out how to make pygfx work with webgpu via wasm

Extending Python with Rust
Rather than using matplotlib, you could try either pygfx (https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx) or fastplotlib (https://github.com/kushalkolar/fastplotlib) to make higher performance graphics using Python.
However, it won't solve your problem of Python not being fast enough doing the calculations.
What are some alternatives?
