Just retested my app with the new 1.5.0 GAE SDK. Results are completely different. Could be SDK or infrastructure changes. Previously, the multithreaded mode would only spawn 3 instances. Now it spawned 8.
1000 user threads, each doing 100 web page requests that issue a couple of backend datastore reads with sessions enabled: - without multithreading - 30 nodes - average 2.4 sec response time - no errors - with multi threading - 8 nodes - average 1.2 sec response time - no errors *Summary: for my app (Java, Stripes, Slim3), multi-threading is twice as fast and requires about 1/4th as many instances.* * * * * -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
