Robert,
finally I moved to tasks... Without tasks I get a lot of missed items
in AggWork table.
But even with tasks - sometimes it stucks:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/base/python_runtime/python_lib/versions/1/google/appengine/
ext/webapp/__init__.py", line 513, in __call__
handler.post(*groups)
File "/base/data/home/apps/app/1.346324028841294499/slagg/
__init__.py", line 584, in post
self.batch = lock.get_write_lock()
File "/base/data/home/apps/app/1.346324028841294499/slagg/
__init__.py", line 144, in get_write_lock
raise WriteLockFailedError
WriteLockFailedError
And cannot process some items in AggWork table
