Last I heard the Go compiler was generating code 6x or more slower than comparable C++ code. Is that not still true?

The graphviz / svg output from the profiler shown there is very nice. Does something similar exist for other languages? I particularly like the scaling of the node size by the appropriate value (CPU time, memory use, etc).
