Re: Gwt-App totally blocks Browser-UI

Javascript is single threaded, so you shouldn't do too much in one go.

You can use Scheduler.get().scheduleIncremental(repeatingCmd) to do some work in pieces. If the problem is that it's slow while dealing with large RPC messages, then you may need smaller messages.

The Problem is, that this blocks the the whole browser (no tab switching no reaction on user interactions, even my animated loading.gif is not loaded/animated). In swing applications the is a "SwingWorker" to keep the ui running - for example to display a progress bar.
