Yes.

Yes. Because the billing was used to be so cheap that I was using only
0.31 of 6.50 cpu cycles, I didn't bother creating separate apps. Now
all code has been running smoothly and database are filled with free
and paid users. I just can't separate them anymore.

If we had separate settings for versions, I could have the free
users's api to point to a version with throttled resources and the
paid users to a version with full-on resources.

The app I have is an iOS app that uses App Engine as a data exchange
place. Some iOS devices send their information to the server while the
server sends information to other iOS devices as a way of
communication between these mobile devices. I wanted to provide the
paid users with prompt response while keep the free users waiting.
Please suggest a way of doing this if possible.
