Mostly memory. Go can run a full web server in 30 mb. Java's equivalent would be around 128 or more. Essentially you can do more PoC on smaller, more affordable hardware using Go. Here's a benchmark for calculation implements. Most of the time Go uses less memory while executing near Java's performance. https://programming-language-benchmarks.vercel.app/go-vs-java https://programming-language-benchmarks.vercel.app/go-vs-jav...
