Not sure such a thing is really possible. Remember AppEngine is distributed, your app could be running in an area thats slow or otherwise degraded, but the test app is running in a perfectly fine area.
(That is almost certainly the issue with the 'official' one, its just appengine app (you could find the app-id at one point). But it only has visibility into its immediate surroundings - not the whole appengine ecosystem) More reliable would be to create another handler in your app, that runs a few simple tests. Then at least its likly to be running on the same instances as your main application. Not totally reliable as a single app can easily be running on multiple instances - each with slightly different characteristics.
