Springloops, web development platform for web developers, just released AJAX based Subversion changes viewer. The new version reduced their server power needs by 15%.

On the server side changes are only taken from version control system and sent to the browser where JavaScript do the job. It analyzes and renders the changes in a much more readable way. In addition to formats and style, the system also compares changes lines to mark inline changes. JavaScript here is not only to have some fancy effects but also to solve more complex problems like the Longest common subsequence
