I cannot tell you why your CPU time seems to have increased, but know that cpu_ms and api_cpu_ms are not using wall-clock milliseconds, but "virtual" milliseconds, defined for the purpose of billing. They more or less correspond to milliseconds on an old-ish machine (some kind of Intel 1.2GHz, IIRC) -- and they depend on the type of request. They are essentially an abstract unit. The app engine documentation gives more detail: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/quotas.html Google might have been better inspired to not label this unit "millisecond". "Disney dollars" are meant to confuse you -- that might not have been a good example to follow. P.S. Turns out, Disney dollars are convertible and pegged to the USD. Linden dollars, then. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
