Here's some data: https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...

Ignoring the programs using x86 intrinsics to do vectorized math, the top-performing Rust, Go, Java, and C# programs are all written in a simple, straightforward style; each is practically a direct translation from the other. The Rust program is fastest, but the others come in at 1.6x, 1.7x, and 1.7x the Rust program, respectively. These are not significant differences for the vast majority of applications.

Of course this is one artificial benchmark, and on that website you will find others where the Java, C#, or Go program will do especially well or especially poorly. But it's clear that those three are all roughly in the same performance class..
