Thanks for the reply, which clears up some of my misunderstandings (sorry, new to Go), I was using the standard library and hadn't looked under the hood, I'll go take a look at what it does. Re rolling restarts:
You can do this with only 2 processes, old and new. You can spawn the new one, tell your LB to add the new to the pool, wait 30 seconds, remove old from pool, wait 60 seconds, kill old one.
You still need a LB to do this, though I take your point that you could use nginx, might experiment with that.
