I agree - however, once you cross the border into C linkage/FFI, you’re losing both Go’s and Rust’s safety features. That seems like a wash to me. Besides, people are doing a splendid job writing pure Go libraries. It helps that Go has some fantastic observability tooling to help performance-minded engineers minimize unnecessary heap allocations. Finally, the Go runtime just isn’t that big. A few megabytes, I think. That’s well below the noise floor for most server environments, and it’s far smaller than, say, a Python or Java runtime.
