For comparison... I did a similar Hello World test around the timeframe of .Net 2.0, and it was around 11mb to load IIRC. The latest iojs on windows seems to be just under 9mb.

Not sure what the golang overhead is, by comparison.

I can't say what an Hello World uses, but I have a Tumblr API → RSS gateway written in Go running for a few months, and it uses ~2MB.
