Thanks Robert. The reason I ask in such a general way is because it is difficult to make such estimates at this time. The site is still new so it doesn't have much traffic. I have accountant types breathing down my neck asking for ballpark numbers! So, basically I just need a scenario of any website on appspot, which has some metrics and also can provide the amount they spend monthly on Appengine. This way my guys can make projections about future costs, based on projected use. This will also have implications for design modifications. Thanks for you help Robert.
