Hi Felippe, As you noted Python 2.7 is released. While Python 2.7 is still experimental it is working well for some but indeed there are still issues before it will be fully GA. There was a concern that we were abandoning Python because there was no solution for concurrent requests. Python 2.7, even in its current state, shows that we are not abandoning Python. We tried our best to make appropriate trade-offs with the new pricing model but at some point we needed to roll it out for the reasons we've discussed at length in the past. For instance, when this was written we were also going to launch the new pricing 1.5 months earlier than we actually released it, which likely saved you quite a bit of money, as opposed to this which is costing you more.
While my guess is you'd still rather that the 50% discount persisted I hope that answers your question, Greg On Tue, Dec 6, 2011 at 5:29 PM, Felippe Bueno <[email protected]>wrote: > > On Tue, Dec 6, 2011 at 8:56 PM, Brian Quinlan <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> There is a known bug where the combination of Python 2.7 and enabling >> concurrent requests causes large latency increases.
