#5Great, now we can kill it in 3 years.
Seriously speaking thought, does anyone have any benchmarks in this vs c?
I have used c in the past to build custom thermostats and would love to switch to go. Thoughts?

Given that Pascal, Basic [1], Oberon [2], Java [3], Ada [4] and C++ [5] already exist as alternative to C and Assembly, adding Go seems like has having yet another positive alternative.
Although not TinyGo based, F-Secure's Foundry hardware key runs Go in bare metal [6], they use their own runtime instead, TamaGo.
