Here in this page MATLAB team has mentioned that they have a dozen of benchmarks shwoing MATLAB is faster than Python:
However I can't find the source code to these benchmarks. I would appreciate if you could provide me with those. I very much like to study them. Thanks in advance.

@per isakson the nasa.gov link is broken (again).

Looks like this is a newer, working NASA link to equivalent content

Broadly speaking I'd agree that MATLAB is often faster than Python. However, with a bit of optimization work you can just as often make Python run faster than MATLAB for computationally intensive work. The combination of Python + Numba can be a viable substitute to mex, that is, you can make your MATLAB code run faster by calling compute intensive functions in Numba-enhanced Python code! https://al.danial.org/posts/accelerate_matlab_with_python_and_numba/ has examples.
