Hi Robert, When targeting backend "thebackend", this was done merely by specifying target=thebackend when creating the Task object. And then in backends.yaml I modify the instances parameter for the backend in question for each of my various tests.
I'm not really too concerned about failfast, so I'll skip that one for the moment ... I haven't played with max concurrent requests, but in the test where I used a frontend, I did not see any additional instances spin up (and my site is very low-use, so there was probably a max of 1-2 instances to start with). I see the same length of delay (~20 seconds) whether I'm testing with my rapid-fire test handler, or running in production with tasks that spend 1+ minutes doing actual work (lots of RPCs- datastore, URLfetch, memcache). Hope this helps. Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
