Google speeds up web apps

Google has announced that its toolkit for turning Java applications into web applications is no longer in beta.

As well as losing its beta status, Google Web Toolkit (GWT) 1.4 offers improved performance by reducing the amount of code generated for compiled web apps. Google notes that users are reporting that after a simple recompile with 1.4, their applications are up to 30% smaller and up to 50% faster.

And they get even faster the next time they’re launched, employing a caching technique to prevent applications from making unnecessary HTTP requests.

Other changes include new widgets and libraries, and easier deployment: adding GWT modules to an HTML page is as simple as adding a script tag.
