There's probably a lot of JavaScript. I'm not sure what's on the server side. – FrustratedWithFormsDesigner Jul 15 '11 at 20:57

Hi Philip, we've closed (and deleted) earlier incarnations of this question as being not constructive: idle speculation/curiosity isn't what Programmers.SE is about. We're looking for practical and answerable questions about problems you're actually facing. See our FAQ for more information. – user8 Jul 15 '11 at 21:21

Voted to reopen. The question is clearly answerable, and might be practically useful to many people (e.g. people wanting to learn from Google's practices or create a case example to help select an appropriate technology stack for a similar project) – mikera Jan 17 '12 at 2:00

Nice correct answer its funny that the mods think that this question is unanswerable when that link hit every tech blog out there the other day. Fight the power. – iterationx Jul 15 '11 at 21:31
