In one of my previous jobs I've used such an Occam transputer, which got replaced by Pascal, and later by C. It got worse and worse. Eventually we couldn't get the hardware anymore and replaced everything in C.
The Occam code was easy to understand and maintain - very complicated controller logic used in power train test sites. The Pascal code not so much anymore and finally floodgates opened with C. Go wasn't around then yet. I've learned Go and wrote the cygwin port after I've left that job. But the fast hardware made up for that mess.
