Maybe it has changed since I last used GWT, but I remember GWT compiles taking a very long time, steadily increasing with the size of your app. Has this been fixed? I have some not-so-very-fond memories of 2 minute long compile times.

It has changed a ton. there is now super dev mode (I don't know when you last used it), so it no longer requires that java applet plugin. Also after the first compile, you only need to recompile changes. I agree with others after going to Angular, etc, I continually scratch my head on why GWT is not universally used more.
