I doubt if you are in the free tier (or sub $1) That you need F4. And $4 a day is CHEAP for a virtual server if it is done right. We reduced several clients hosting for $3000-5000 a month to $120. That's a chunk of change for hosting. And Sites like Jeff Probst's went from needing $6k a month to handle bursts to needing $500 a year. That's an insane reduction in cost.

F4 will bill me more and I don't know exactly how many instance hours I need in my case (100 daily at current levels?) To make an estimate I think I want to know number of pageviews per instance hour and I can get that if I can complete a test with F4 for one complete day of billing and it's looking like I must pay > 4 dollars just to complete to test which is looking like I will go with F1 or F2. I tried changing from F1 to F4 and my billing skyrocketed from 0.1 to 4. I want to run my app on F4 but 4 dollars a day is expensive for a virtual server. At current usage levels with F1 I'm billed abt 10 cents daily for my largest app while same time running it on F4 bills me > 4 dollars today so difference in billing is huge. Maybe we could tell from the billing which billing was F1, F2 or F4 since I had to experimentally find that F2 should be my current setting. I still couldn't try F4 for a complete day without going over quota. In my latest test I set the daily budget to 4 USD and still couldn't run F4 without going over quota. Increasing from F1 to F4 in my case more than quardruples the billing so without affecting income so for now I can't go with F4, it's too expensive and my app goes over quota. The difference in billing is not the difference in income. I can increase the budget but that won't increase income so I don't buy performance for its own sake. Does the setting apply to static files and blobs as well or just the runtime? Now I want emil notification if my app goes over quota again, could that be enabled? I use python 2.7, webapp2, jinja2, wtforms, babel. Thanks, Niklas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
