henric, i agree with barry and dale:
1. you need to find out the source of these requests. if they are a DoS attack, then you should implement a DoS filter to avoid such traffic hitting your app: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/dos.html 2. you need to implement warmup requests -- this is disabled by default in App Engine, so you need to explicitly turn them on in your app.yaml. such requests are made to new instances to prep it *before* it is streamed any traffic for your app. this means that users who hit a running instance or a new one will not notice a difference in performance. best regards, -- wesley - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Core Python Programming", Prentice Hall, (c)2007,2001 "Python Fundamentals", Prentice Hall, (c)2009 http://corepython.com wesley.chun : wesc+api at google.com : @wescpy developer relations :: google cloud products -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
