Then you should be happy that Go has been putting a lot of effort into making its GC as non-blocking as possible. There was an interesting blog post from Pusher yesterday (https://blog.pusher.com/golangs-real-time-gc-in-theory-and-practice/ https://blog.pusher.com/golangs-real-time-gc-in-theory-and-p...) about how they had to learn how the GC works and how to make the most of it; the links give more information into golang's internal evolution.
