Node of course can work on multiple cores, using worker threads [1]. You can even share large data efficiently using a SharedArrayBuffer.

It isn’t trivial to just split up a game into múltiple worker threads and keep everything in sync. With Go, it’s much easier.

Can you expand on the low hanging fruit of splitting a game into multiple goroutines?

What lends itself well to this?

goroutines

There is still considerable overhead turning things into buffers and back. Was there ever a good reason given as to why passing an object to a worker normally has to convert everything to string and back? It is just so completely idiotic.
