Hi Jon, thanks again for helping me with this issue

My concern is that there are too many instances being created all time, and
only a few are created using WarmUpRequests to /_ah/warmup. My idea of
AlwaysOn and WarmUpRequests was that, for a small app, most WarmUpRequets
would be to /_ah/warmup and only a few would be user requests (specially
when there is a traffic peek). Is that right?

The logs for today are much better, there are some /_ah/warmup requests.
Today (12/14) from 7am to 10am, I had 13 loading requests (4 are /_ah/warmup
requests). Isn't that too much if I have AlwaysOn with 3 reserved
instances?

And I understand that I always have 3 instances when checking the Instances
panel; that's ok. But why there are too many instances startups and why most
of them are initialized in user requests instead of /_ah/warmup requests?

(And about my app traffic, I had a huge peek yesterday; but most of the time
I have small traffic. Before AlwaysOn, the instances panel always reported
one instance was enough)

Thanks again
Sergio
