True. Even very successful database projects in Java have some issues with GC pauses.

Go seems to be, IMO, taking the things Java is best at and trying to make something better. Basically, how would you build Java today if you could do it again?

Take Modula-3 (1986), change the keywords to lowercase and re-brand it as "Cool Language X".

Still better Go than C.
