Go’s GC is low latency and it allows you to explicitly trigger a collection as well as prevent the collector from running for a time. I would wager that the developer time/frustration spent taming the GC would be more than made up for by the dramatic improvement in ergonomics everywhere else. Of course, the game dev libraries for Go would have to catch up before the comparison is valid.
