In the financial space the Zing JVM from Azul is very popular, at least it is among the London developers.

It has a pauseless generational collector called C4 (which is detailed in the Garbage Collection Handbook). Gil Tene, the CTO and founder of Azul, appeared on the Go mailing list a while back and outlined the steps towards implementing the C4 collector in Go.

This looks like progress towards that. But I don't know if C4 is any kind of concrete (or even speculative) goal. I would love it if standard Go was running a C4 GC implementation.
