It is funny that just after I wrote this, I spotted another article on the frontpage: https://sourcegraph.com/blog/live/gophercon2015/123574706480 https://sourcegraph.com/blog/live/gophercon2015/123574706480 So I admire their goal to reduce latency (it's probably a latency-throuhput tradeoff) and I always get told that real-time (which in my opinion requires low-latency) is possible in GC-languages, I just do not know how to do that reliable. But I hope I am wrong and it is possible to go real-time with a GC as it is often a prerequisite for high-level language features.
