Thanks for the replies. I think my code example created confusion
because I used a counter update. Let's say instead that the code is:
def updateStatus(myKey, myStatus):
entity = myRecs.get_by_key_name(myKey)
entity.staus = status
entity.put()
Right now I am just calling this function to update the HR entity. I
am not doing it in a transaction such as:
db.run_in_transaction(updateStatus, myKey, myStatus)
Is it ok to call this update function without doing so as part of a
transaction?? Note that there is no risk of any other calls/updates to
this record so I've got no entity contention issues?
Otherwise, thanks to Robert for answering my question.
I'll try to restate it for my situation: For any one key value, I can
only call this function at most once per second. If I have a burst of
update tasks (this is done in a task queue) for 5 different customers
(5 different key values) and the queue manager bursts them through all
at the same time, it will not take 5 seconds elapsed time (not talking
cpu time here) for all five tasks to complete.
