Hi Benjamin, We recently increased the task limit from 10,000 a day to 100,000 a day for billed apps. You can enable billing for your app, and it will get the increased quotas even if you don't ever exceed the free quotas.
Please bear in mind that the task queue is still in labs; the limits today are unlikely to be representative of the limits once the task queue is out of labs. We don't currently intend to make tasks a billed quota, as tasks are already billed for the other billed resources they consume such as CPU seconds - the Task Queue quota falls into the same category as the other non-billed quotas you see on the Quota Details page. -Nick Johnson On Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 6:31 PM, Benjamin Schuster-Böckler <[email protected] > wrote: > > I use the task queue for some heavy lifting background updating.
