Awesome, this is also the kind of comments that helps to learn. Despite what you dislike, would you use it anyway because of the good performance?

No, if I needed good performance I would use C++, no garbage-collected language would be proper in this field. If I need a massive level of concurrency, I would probably use Javascript (with Node) or Elixir.

Maybe there are some edge cases where they aren't as performant as Go, but productivity wins by a lot here.
