> GWT UIs don't "crash the browser". Google derives the majority of its revenue from AdWords and AdSense, which are GWT, and if they were crashing customer's browsers like you say, I'm pretty sure Google would be in trouble.
I use Adwords quite a bit, and it is buggy. I probably have to refresh every 10 minutes or so to get the buttons to work again. It is an absolutely massive application with more features than all of Google Docs combined, so I am not surprised. The bugs can be frustrating, but it is not like there is an alternative place to buy ads on Google's search pages. Google will be fine no matter how many bugs are in Adwords.
Adsense is quite simple, and works well.
That being said, Adwords has been getting much better.
