Hello,

I have been going through the logs of one of my applications trying to
determine how best way to change it so I can minimize my billing. I
don't have a good understanding of how instances work with the Google
App Engine.

A typical log line looks something like this;
ms=33 cpu_ms=90 api_cpu_ms=43 cpm_usd=0.002837
instance=00c61b117cae71509510e6ae1e0ecc025ebb5855

Now if I apply memcache to a page it becomes something like this;
ms=27 cpu_ms=0 api_cpu_ms=0 cpm_usd=0.000374
instance=00c61b117cae71509510e6ae1e0ecc025ebb5855

The first setting "ms" is still very variable and hasn't really
dropped much on average. cpu_ms, api_cpu_ms and cpm_usd have all
dropped dramatically.

My question: is the instance effectively tied up waiting for the
entire transaction to take place (the setting "ms") or is there some
type of multitasking/multithreading taking place?
What should I be looking for in my logs to reduce my instance usage?

Thank you.
