I am a part-time rust programmer at best, and it was my understanding of the Rust design that it goes something like "Systems programming and memory safety without sacrificing performance" not "automatically faster", unless you compare only to "memory safety without performance guarantees" e.g., Python, JS/CLI, Java, etc. It seems to me that Go lives in this same domain where it intersects networked systems programming.
