NotesFinally, C# undoubtedly beat all other languages; it's very competitive and has really become a monster. And as expected, Rust continues to do a good job on memory efficiency.
The distance between Go and the others increased. Now Go loses by over 13 times to the winner. It also loses by over 2 times to Java, which contradicts the general perception of the JVM being a memory hog and Go being lightweight.Unfurl

NotesThe UI is served over HTTP directly from the binary using Go’s fantastic http.FileServer implementation from the standard library. Sometime around February 2021 was the Go 1.16 release, which came with native embedding of files into Go binaries. Flipt quickly took advantage of this feature for bundling the static UI assets directly into the binary. Go has a handy wrapping function that adapts the embed.FS into the required http.FileSystem interface to integrate it seamlessly into an http.Server. You can find the current (v1.16.0) embed directive in Flipt here.FeedUnfurl
