Hi Greg,

I haven't looked into the details of the incoming requests, I will do that 
when I have a bit of time, but it probably doesn't matter too much to me 
anymore. I've pretty much decided I will have to pay $9/month for an 
estimated average 10-15c per day of usage, since 1k XMPP Stanzas/day is 
definitely not enough for my app... Don't suppose that $9/month minimum 
could be reconsidered?

I guess I understand what the scheduler is trying to do, and I don't see the 
problem anymore now that I've setup a 1 min heartbeat to keep the instance 
up. It does spin up extra instances occasionally when the XMPP or Datastore 
API chokes up and causes an ApiDeadlineExceededException. I guess it 
shouldn't matter after I enable billing and will be able to set min idle 
instance to 1.

Probably a minor issue though, but with Min Pending Latency set to 15s and 
my instance loading time being ~5-6s, should the scheduler be opening a new 
instance? I think it could be smarter because it shouldn't be necessary to 
open a new instance when it knows that another one is in the process of 
being opened. Not that it really matters now that I understand we will be 
charged for Max Idle Instance + Active Instances
