The presentation redacted the stats about how this affects Google performance. I bet it saves enough CPU hours to pay the author's salary many many many times over. Good job!

Maybe? I'm under the impression that the vast majority of Google's software is not written in Golang, though.

But even 1% of their software being go would still see more use than most software you or I write in our lifetimes.

dl.google.com has been golang since 2013. Imagine the traffic that application gets!
