What do you mean by a "freeze"? and a "full refresh"?

   1. users won't have the new version unless they refresh (F5) the page. 
   For this though, you have to ensure the *.nocache.js is effectively not 
   cached by browsers or proxies (or at a minimum cached with a 
   "must-revalidate" condition)
   2. any change to a GWT-RPC class (particularly objects that are 
   transfered through RPC) will break older versions that are still in use, 
   with an IncompatibleRemoteServiceException, because client and server must 
   use the same serialization policies; you can track this to tell users to 
   refresh the page (I guess this is what the GWT-based Google Groups UI does)
   3. if you use code splitting (runAsync) and you remove the old *.cache.* 
   files, users won't be able to download the fragments while they're using 
   the old version of the app. You can, again, catch this in the onFailure of 
   the RunAsyncCallback to tell users to refresh the page.
   4. Every compilation should produce differently named *.cache.* files, 
   so you can safely set long cache times for these files:
