I'd think mostly similar. Goroutines are "stackful" coroutines, though, so their memory use will be higher. They have an interesting stack copying model, so I'm not sure if they require as many pages as POSIX threads do. (Having a "denser" memory space and no guard page requirement would mean you could use huge pages and thus have much less TLB pressure.)
