Google's Edge will deny you if you start doing too many requests that look the same. You get a pop up fill out a captcha life is happy for 24 hours. You have to work pretty hard to get these, but I have seen it.
YOUR ISP may throttle you if you look like you are trying to DDoS a site. I get this a LOT more than I hit Google's edge. If your response is slow, and the bit speed slows down. It is your ISP. If the 5XX Error page is not a Google Error, it is your ISP.

We have locally java server that connects to GAE and requests some data. In the beginning of this process, GAE responses very quickly and first 10, 20, maybe 50 requests are returned very fast and everything is as expected. But suddenly (after very nice beginning) it starts to throttle our requests to let's say 1 request/sec - 1 request/2 sec although there is no other load. I think that there is some DDoS protection GAE feature or something like that but there is no official response.
