Yeah I may need to re-write my stuff to run java instead of Python. 100k people show up in one hour to watch a survivor clip and suddenly I need to serve 10 requests a page times 27 people per second, so I have to serve 270 Requests per second (this happens for me a lot). If each request takes 200ms (which is about the average) then each instance serves 5 requests per second. I need 54 instances. Previously Paying for CPU hours it appears the instance did almost nothing I got billed for the API call, and the "Instance" sat there idle saying Oh I'm just waiting for the write buffer to send this data I pulled from Mem-cache. And I would get a bill for "Read from Mem cache" and "data out". -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
