Did someone have succeed stressing a GWT app?
Any recommended tool?
I wrote a blog post about this topic a little while ago.

There I published a Selenium 2 test script written in Groovy and a Gradle script for the parallel execution.
But with this solution and no accessibility from the outside its quite difficult to put a heavy load on your GWT application. Except you have many free test clients available in your work/dev environment.
We are successfully using http://loadui.org to test our GWT app. To test the GUI we input directly JSON HTTP requests to our RPC servlet. It's also useful to test SOAP/REST web services.
http://loadstorm.com/ is a great tool which lives in the cloud and supports Javascript. Fairly powerful and easy to setup and use.
We use NeoLoad for our GWT load tests campaigns. They provide an easy way to describe the JSON calls in the GUI.
You should check this out here to see if it can help you as well!
My Company (UBIK-INGENIERIE) distributes a commercial Apache JMeter plugin to load test GWT and GWT RPC applications.
You can easily record, variabilize and replay GWT and GWT RPC based application with standard knowledge of Apache JMeter.
