> At scale, nothing is cheap; there is no cheap resource if you are writing software for scale or for customers. Often, single bytes count. RAM usage counts. CPU cycles count. Allocations count

Well if maximalist performance tuning is your stated goal, to the point that single bytes count, I would imagine Go is a pretty terrible choice? There are definitely languages with a more tunable GC and more cache line friendly tools than Go.

But honestly, your comment reads more like gatekeeping, saying someone is inexperienced because they aren't working with software at the same scale as you. You sound equally inexperienced (and uninterested) with their problem domain.
