GWT Collections emulation library performance

[Nikos Dimitrakopoulos]

I've written a blog post regarding (the poor) performance of the
Collections emulation in GWT called "GWT Collections emulation library
performance pitfall" and you can find it here :
http://blog.nikosd.com/2010/09/benchmarking-gwt-collections-emulation.html.
It has some benchmarks regarding initializing collections and
iterating around them on IE, Chrome and Firefox and some conclusions.

I'm not sure whether this is issue is known (and accepted as simply
"nothing can be done") or not and this is why I'm posting here this
link. Hopefully it will get some attention from the core GWT
developers. Any feedback, discussion, suggestions, alternative
workarounds etc are more than welcome.

What happens when you use "for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++)" to
iterate over ArrayList?

I've Googled an interesting example how GWT can optimize iterators:

I wonder what GWT makes from your "iterateTest".
Can you compile with detailed and post the JavaScript code of
iterateTest?

It's known that the Collections emulation has some performance
penalty. The GWT team is working on a solution:
