Is my code I/O bound? Does it have no/easy SLA? Does it fall well within the send payload, transform payload, send payload to another service or DB flow ... and provided it's along these lines not running into the zillions of iterations per second GO is ideal ... there's been lots of whining about GO not have generics. As we use a lot of JSON I don't care plus it's coming anyway. Now if we get into serious SLA or latency issues, I'll move from GO into RUST. Either way we avoid C/C++. Gotta like that.
