Aye, the findings about Go match my experience as well. It's very useful for static caches (e.g. ZIP code and address data), but horrible at LRU caches and the like. If you have an upper bound on your memory usage and know you can keep that in memory on your instance, it's great and super quick. If you need to free up memory and dynamically replace cache entries, it falls apart.
