Re:Go as an alternative to Node.js for very fast servers by arh68 on Wednesday August 14, 2013 @05:23PM (#6214383)
I did find this bit:

  // When calling .end(buffer) right away, this triggers a "hot path"
  // optimization in http.js, to avoid an extra write call.
  //
  // However, the overhead of copying a large buffer is higher than
  // the overhead of an extra write() call, so the hot path was not
  // always as hot as it could be.
  //
  // Verify that our assumptions are valid.
