The Jetty server is not used again after an error so another one has to be spun-up for you next request. The only thing you can do about it is tackle the HDEEs which is not always easy. It sounds like they might be due to long start-up time?

If so there are a number of tactics you can use to reduce this:

Use lazy initialization as much as possible.
Split your app into a user facing version and an admin version that share the same datastore If you use Guice try using the non-AOP version that does not enhance classes at startup
Spring - not sure but others mentioned turning off classpath scanning
Try reducing external jar dependencies - not sure how much affect loading these has

If the cause of the HDEEs is that your requests take a long time then you'll need to reduce processing time

Try using the Deferred class:

Thank you.

If there are errors like HardDeadlineExceededError then the server

I was just looking in the logs after making numerous requests to my
application. Something is seriously wrong. I'm even having high CPU
on static files.  In one request it took 45 seconds of CPU to return
the favicon.ico file.  I guess this is really related to starting a
server instance, but if that's true then the server is going down
after only a few seconds of use. It is starting the server handling a
request and a few seconds later dropping the server.  It isn't even
staying up a minute.

I have a very simple Groovy on Grails application installed that uses
only a single table.  The application is really just the scaffolded
edits on this table with very few modifications to make it work. So
it doesn't really do anything.

About one in five clicks result in an error. The exception is a Hard Deadline Exceeded and there is a warning about the CPU limit as well. Randomly a request will take around 30 seconds of CPU for no reason. There is no change in the code. There is no change to the data. The
exact same request will return with essentially no latency and then
it
will take 30 seconds of CPU.

I thought this might be some kind of weirdness with Grails, but there
are several issues listed that seem to be related to same issue:

?id=2837http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=2846

I've stared them all because they all are likely related to the same
problem I'm having.

I was hoping that someone here knew what was going on and might be
able to help me resolve it.  In one of the messages above someone
mentions moving an application to another "shard" to solve the
problem.  What does this mean?  Is it really a potential solution?

Thank you.
