Hi Greg, I am a new comer to GAE despite being aware of new pricing model. I have my application @ metasearchprodenv.appspot.com.
At the time of loading the application, a method, say loadingMethod, is called which internally makes 4 web service call one-by-one and takes around 40 sec in total and then goes to finish. So what i observe is when there is no traffic for say 1 hour and i hit the url, it loads the application again from scratch and calls that loadingMethod and then loads the application on the client which gives user a long waiting time for application to load on client machine. And it happens every time i hit the url if there was no instance ready before. So i think creating a new instance is all about initialising all the classes of application from scratch. Right ? If it is so, let me know how can i optimise the application so user does not have to wait long.
