Anyone care to share their experience writing something in go? I've toyed with it but not built anything in production. FWIW, the go dashboard ( https://godashboard.appspot.com/ ) has a number of interesting projects.
I made a few web application servers (mostly for games) and it's been a real pleasure, not to mention that my programs run for months handling millions of queries (mostly json) without the slightest problem.
Using the go tool to get libraries, build, compile, test, benchmark, is like a dream.
An example of what I found kind of marvelous : I had sometimes queries leading to the call to a function updating a lot of things in a kind of specific database. That is the browser had to wait about 1 second because there was in the query handling code something like this :
for _, ami := range amis {
bra.EnrichitCouchePNG(ms.répertoireCartesBraldun(ami.IdBraldun, ami.Mdpr), couche, PNG_CACHE_SIZE)
}
for _, ami := range amis {
go bra.EnrichitCouchePNG(ms.répertoireCartesBraldun(ami.IdBraldun, ami.Mdpr), couche, PNG_CACHE_SIZE)
}
