Seems like we're pretty middle of the road. I can only guess as to why but it probably has to do with heavy usage of pointers and reflection. Gogo/protobuf solved this performance with code generation, but the go protobuf implementation has essentially eschewed it. I do wonder how the benchmark would look using the new vitess proto library for Go (which has many of the benefits of gogo but with active development and an API built on top of the Google one)
