I've build few swing applications and I can say swing it's quite slow and
consumes a lot of resources.
I consider this is not the most important part as long as:
- the application is reliable from a functional point of view
- small response time for simple operations
- it offers me information of the ongoing long operations
- presents exceptions in a understandable way (I prefer a simple message
like "Oooops! Bad click!" to a stack trace)
- I have the resources (I think these days 256M of RAM is affordable)
