Go and Java are close cousins.

The difference is of course the JIT -- with Go the single binary means you can disassemble it to find out what it's trying to do. JIT adds a layer of mystery.

Also, with Go it's largely possible to avoid heap allocations in performance hotspots. With Java I'm not so sure.
