Hey Ikai,

Nope, not deliberately trying to force a cycle.  I'm just trying to
figure out if it's my fault for the continued aggressive recycling.
Some people complain about losing the instance after an hour, but I'm
losing it after 5 seconds.

I'm certainly aware that a new deployment causes an instance restart -
I should hope so!  That's not what is happening here.

You suggest being able to crash the instance - is there something I
might be doing to cause that in the cloud?  Again, I'm not seeing any
exceptions or errors in my log file and all works fine in local-mode
and on a different version in Tomcat.

I'm certainly willing to share any/all source code to help debug this
problem.  We're experimenting with GAE, but we'll need something that
stays up under load for demonstrations in Q2.

Thanks!

Jake
