Finding out if that does resolve the author's issue would be interesting but I'm not sure that that would be particularly supportive data in favor of Go. If anything it would reinforce the downsides of Go's GC implementation: prone sudden pitfalls only avoidable with obtuse, error-prone fiddling that makes the code more complex.

After spending weeks fighting with Java's GC tuning for a similar production service tail latency problem, I wouldn't want to be caught having to do that again.
