Hi Ikai, I hope you can help me out even though this is such an old thread.
I've been looking around the internet and I can't seem to figure out why my appcfg.py download_data (backup to my csv) is performing so slowly. I see the "No descending index on __key__, performing serial download" and the dot's indicating progress just keep going. It is downloading quite slowly. I'm looking at my mac's "Activity Monitor" and it's download it at around 23kb/sec. By the way, I'm from Australia, so maybe that might be one cause. To give you some context, my GAE app is in Java and the kind I'm downloading has about 25,0000 entries. I'm also following your blog entry: http://ikaisays.com/2010/06/10/using-the-bulkloader-with-java-app-engine/ the closet but I'm also read this to help me get a better understand of how to edit bulkloader.yaml files: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/uploadingdata.html My questions are: 1) How to I speed up this backup and eventually the restore process? 2) How do I make a "descending index" on __Key__, I've already got some custom indices inside my datastore-indexes-auto.xml and datastore-indexes.xml but nothing for the key. In fact I'm not even sure how to make a desc index on the key property inside my datastore-indexes.xml with desc direction. Would it be like (assuming the name of the key is id): <datastore-index kind="Game" ancestor="false" source="manual"> <property name="id" direction="desc"/> </datastore-index> Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
