That was porting from Ruby. Go is particularly good for any application where you want to get better utilization out of your CPU, or want to cut down on memory usage.
Most of the code we've been porting has been infrastructure: parsers, reverse proxies, and the like. We're still getting a feel for what it's like writing complex application logic in Go, but what we've seen so far has been promising.

As well, there are plenty of softer aspects you might care to optimize: productivity, maintainability, library support, etc.. There's unfortunately never a free lunch with software engineering.
