At the end of the day there has to be a tradeoff between ease of use and performance. Having spent a lot of time optimizing high throughput services in go, it always felt like I was fighting the language. And that's because I was... sure they could add arenas but that just feels like what it is, a patch over the fact you're working alongside a GC.

It's more like fighting ideology. Each language goes long ways to teach their idiomatic ways, but if it comes to performance most languages break down at that point. Writing fast code makes you feel dirty, but the fault is in the constant signalling of DON'T DO THAT.
