Erm, and what has _robustness_ with fast & less overhead to do? It's exactly the other way round, a python program is much less likely to crash that C/C++, and if so in manners that are much easier to manage and fix. I've done extensive GUI-development with PyQt, and can say that it's a very productive and powerful combination. And GUI-code usually isn't troublesome performance-wise.
