When you're looking for getting the most out of your system, then yes. The JVM has reasonable defaults, and has recently switched its default GC to lower latency numbers at the expense of throughput (which golang already does, but it only has a single GC). The JVMs newer GCs also have fewer parameters to tune, by nature of what they do.

The JVM already runs on systems with 100s of GB and more (even TBs). golang will have issues running on such systems.
