On: Fuzzing a DNS parser written in Go

The possible exception of Google. I wouldn't be surprised if Cloudflare had more traffic exercising Go programs.

Possible, yeah. The highest-throughput Go usage I'm aware of within Google is https://github.com/youtube/vitess, Youtube's MySQL load balancer: "a fundamental component of YouTube's MySQL infrastructure, serving thousands of QPS per server".

Not sure how that compares to Cloudflare's global traffic though, and what other high-throughput Go usages exist at Google.

Apparently dl.google.com is powered by Go. I'm guessing that get's a fair bit of traffic too.

Thanks for this, it'll be nice to go through this a bit and learn how Go is used from inside Google.
