I use Java every day but just to point out that your info about Go‘s GC seems out of date. They switched to Green Tea in 1.25 (I think?) - new GC that even has AVX-512 optimizations. Not sure what you mean by basic about the compiler but it‘s very fast and supports a large set of platforms. That‘s not basic to me.

We are using JDK25 and are considering rewriting parts of our product to Go because of lower memory pressure and faster startup time, i.e., cloud friendly. I actually love both languages.
