> On the downside, both their JIT and their GC seem to be far less sophisticated than the JVM

I've always heard this, but does it actually manifest in noticeably worse performance than the JVM? Go has a much simpler GC, but it's not terribly slower than Java (I do know they are optimized for different things).

It seems like C# is within bounds of Java while also having great performance escape hatches.
