If you mean go programs, the compile speed is tolerable provided you are not building very large programs. If you mean the go compiler itself, hopefully the 2GB VM you get on 9p/pi4 is enough to compile the compiler using a cross-compiled bootstrap compiler. If the build does work, it will be slow because sdcards are slow. Root mounted from a decent fileserver may help. Another option worth exploring may be AOE as pi4 has a GbE (I haven't tried this yet).
