I've not had time to play with Python 2.7 to see how much threads help yet, but the scheduler needs work too. I frequently see under 1 QPS / instance on low (sub 150ms) latency apps. I may be way of the mark, but it seems like just getting that fixed would be a significant reduction in cost for us, and a better utilization of resources for Google.
