I set my real app to min idle = 1, max latency is 1sec yesterday. Here's the result: The scheduler REALLY doesn't want to run only 1 instance. As you can see, it really wants to run 2. And I really don't want the users to have a totally sucky user experience, either. I'd like them to get enough instances to serve them well for the few minutes a day they are using the system. > > > Another idea, you get 9 hours of backend free a day too.

Can you elaborate on this idea? -Joshua -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
