If you get DeadlineExceeded error during import phase you can sometimes get a stuck instance that can't import some modules on future requests, and if you keep hitting the running instance you can get wierd import errors.
It doesn't happen very often now (but did back 4-5 months ago) to us. I actually deploy two versions with the same code (eg 1-0-1a and 1-0-1b) that I can flick default versions between, in the event I get a stuck instance. I think we have only had to do that once in the last 4 months, but flicking default version of an already deployed copy is quicker ;-) Deploying a new version does the same thing.
