Ah, the age old question of development speed vs program speed :)

With experience you should be able to determine what language and libraries you'll need before you start. Many times a modern managed language with a good standard library is the right choice for your project. I'm partial to Go and C# but that's just me.

I guess the reverse question you can ask yourself is whether Go's disadvantages (runtime, garbage collection, etc) are going to hinder your project in a way that C wouldn't.
