From what I can see GO is purely compiled down to object code and linked into
static binaries. IMHO Perl, as an interpreted language, is doing *super* to
be *only* twice the runtime of Go! Maybe others have a better handle on
this.

This is true. On the other hand JVM languages are also faster than Perl and
on some benchmarks able to beat object object code.

I've never seen GO before this thread, but after a glance at the GO web site,
I suspect the difference may have more to do with concurrency than compiling.
Perl is written in C and natively pretty good at file and string manipulation.
My gut says a 2x win for this problem just by using GO
