I would expect Rust to be faster. I never claimed Go would be faster than Rust, but that it would be faster than Python. I think for rust, the barrier of entry is high in that it is a difficult language to learn. Admittedly, I don't know rust, but people I know who do have said as much. I think Go strikes a good balance of being easy to learn and use, having a rich standard library, and also being performant.
