Libglade is pretty efficient for doing UI's.  After building the UI, it
does not add any extra CPU overhead to the program.  The python wrapper
for libglade is also quite thin, so will run at the same speed as most
other pygtk programs.  In fact, libglade's overhead may be less than
python's overhead, so in some circumstances, programs using libglade may
be quicker than one that builds the interface with pure pygtk.

As for where libglade is being used, a number of the dialogs in gnumeric
use libglade.  There are a few other gnome programs that are using it.  To
get some idea of where it is being used, go to http://cvs.gnome.org/lxr
and search for the identifier glade_xml_new.
