Mapping a Go 1.27 program's memory on Linux

Chris Siebenmann walks through the memory map of a Go 1.27 program on Linux, the kind of patient dissection that actually explains where the runtime's address space goes. Around it, the day skews practical: a writeup on trimming a PHP monolith down to one stateless Go service after a timeout budget forced the issue, another on graceful shutdown via channels and goroutines, and a forum thread hashing out whether a Redis-plus-Postgres background worker is actually safe to run in multiple instances.
