The GCs alone? Yes. The rest of their respective runtime architectures? Highly doubtful. As GC-dependent as Go may be, it still does end up as native code.

But frankly, comparing Go to Java when things like Rust exist ... seems analogous to comparing the z80 to the AVR when 32-bit ARM cores exist.

Offtopic/meta: for some reason your post was dead. The comment at the end is kind of pointless and flamey, Rust isn't that good, but doesn't seem to justify a post kill. I vouched for you to bring it back.
