If you did a line for line transliteration, did you use any of Go's concurrency features such goroutines or channels? I ask because I find that when I translate a program from Python to Go that it's beneficial to structure the program differently so that I can use goroutines.
With Twisted (and with our threadpool worker pools), many patterns translated directly into Goroutine usage in a much cleaner way. Where with Python we were using our own helper libraries, Go's stdlib and the language itself were often more than enough.
We didn't end up using channels too much. Deferreds got translated into Futures that we wrote a small library for. Many of our Go-specific utility classes do use channels heavily though.
