Hi,

I think about how to implement a *browser GUI that primarily will show a 
list of a lot of data objects*. When something is added to the list on 
server side or one of those objects is changed, the client side *GUI should 
be updated*. So I need a *server push*. I already have a websocket 
connection and used the AutoBean functionality for something else. In 
theory I could immediately implement the whole thing by either pushing the 
whole list each time something is changed or even do any suitable caching. 
But I'm relatively new to GWT and I'm sure there are a lot of things that I 
don't know yet. I'm curious* how people with more experience would 
implement it*.

During my research today I discovered the RequestFactory where caching 
seems to be included. At least I found the sentence *"Furthermore, the 
EntityProxy interface enables RequestFactory to compute and send only 
changes ("deltas") to the server.*" Can this be used to have a List/Result 
entity on the server and client that is updated automatically with just a 
little bit of traffic in between without thinking about what was changed by 
myself?

Do you recommend anything else for this use case?
Thanks in advance!
Andy
