Ditto, that is the only reason (well, one of two reasons) I am not using GAE anymore. No chance at all of keeping connections open for server-push updating (ala gtalk inside gmail and such). The other reason is I prefer C++ to program websites in. My little C++ web server blows everything else out in terms of speed, and I can do all the fancy stuff I could ever possibly imagine, like server-push and websockets and such. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
