I have the same experience. All the tools at my disposal including mutrace for measuring contention, I just feel like C++ is a solid language. Sure, I wish there was more compile-time stuff, like the ability to force a function argument to be compile-time, but in my experience, modern compilers often have surprisingly deep reach, and you can expect much of your code to just be compiled away if written a certain way. I recently wrote a server-client framework from scratch and used protobuf for messaging. The server is heavily multi-threaded with a lot of complex asynchronous rules, and there are no issues. If anything, I would hope for more concurrency primitives, as the C++ standard library is very high quality, and I would like concurrent hash maps and such.
