Work on your code. Typically my requests are serving in 300ms . Of course there are a lot of factors, and there are different sweet spots based on the type of thing you are doing, but you should race "Hello World" on the two, and Retrieve record containing "Hello World" on the two.
Often very simple code reveals where the issues lie. Also even if GAE were 10% slower for a small application, the win is when you get to the "I'd need 4 machines to do this much work" because then you need a load balancer, and you can't do the SQL call via the local machine you have to connect via the network, all of these things add time. In my experience: Traditional Setup 100ms from End user to infrastructure. 180ms to pass the load balancer 150ms for Apache/Php/Java to start working on the request (out put hello world) 150ms for SQL to start working on a request 200ms to get the SQL request 100ms to write and send to user. Total time 880ms to server text out of a database as HTML GAE 100ms from End user to infrastructure. 35ms to start working 75ms to retrieve via GQL 100 MS to send to user Total time 305MS From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Niklas Rosencrantz Sent: Sunday, May 01, 2011 1:48 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [google-appengine] Is GAE expected to get faster in the future? I know we can optimize our code so that it runs faster but still I find absolute response times from app engine are somewhat slow. Will it get faster in the future even though I don't redeploy a new more optimized version? I'm comparing with a physical dedicated rack server running a Linux + JBoss with JSP servlets and mysql that responded very fast comapred to same view on app engine. Of course we can measure with yslow the relative response time which is good on app engine. Thanks for you comments.
