Hi all,
we are working on a model-driven application builder. We basically
translate UML diagrams into working applications, and we are using GWT
for the user interface. We have a major problem with GWT 1.5 compiler
performace.

It takes a few seconds to generate the database DDL and the entire
java code, then a few seconds more to compile the java business logic,
then TWO MINUTES to compile the GWT-based user interface for just two
platforms (FF and MSIE).

One of the problems with compiling our GWT user interface is the fact
that, with each application, we have to entirely recompile also a huge
business-intelligence front-ent called Livetable, whose javascript
size is about 2MB.

We are considering the possibility to pre-compile the Livetable a
generic javascript library, maybe using GWT exporter, as explained in
"http://googlewebtoolkit.blogspot.com/2008/07/getting-to-really-know-
gwt-part-1-jsni.html" and then using this library from the rest of the
GWT application.

My questions are:

1) Will the compiler in GWT 1.6 allow to pre-compile libraries of
reusable GWT components, so that we don't have to recompile them along
with the rest of the applications ?

2) How faster will be the GWT 1.6 compiler ? Any figure on this ?


Thank you in advance to the entire GWT staff and community.
Antonio.
