In my GWT program I parse a large xml file using JAXB on the server side and then convert these objects into DTO. They contain a lot of strings, doubles, and integers in a nested hierarchy. I'm using ArrayList as collection for the nested objects. The problem is that when I send this over RPC it takes around 16 seconds and the browser freezes. I first thought there was something wrong with JAXB or the DTO conversion but as you can see below they are very fast:
DEBUG gwt-log:72 - - JAXB conversion time: 0.047 seconds DEBUG gwt-log:72 - - DTO conversion time: 0.015 seconds When I inspect the RPC call using FireBug I can see that the object being transferred is 4.6 kb and it says POST dispatch 111ms. When I inspect some more I can see that the function @com.google.gwt.user.client.rpc.impl.ClientSerializationStreamReader::readInt() seems to be the culprit with 5428 calls and 6654ms total time. ::getString(I), ::readDouble(), ::readLong() are also called a lot with around 3000ms each. Am I doing something wrong here or should it really be this slow? ~16 seconds for 5 kb of DTO data. It just seems wrong to me. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
