Hi Pamela,

Re: recommendation
It depends on how important the uptime is for you. Whatever you can do to
mitigate the risk of having lots of loading requests, will naturally cost
you more. For example, stopping setting "Max Idle Instances", settings some
"Min Idle Instances", and upgrading to higher instance class like F2, all
of them will improve your app's performance and uptime, but lead to a
higher bill.

Re: versions
Unfortunately the idle instances settings only affect the default version
now. So If I were you, I would merge all of them into one default version
and try that "Min Idle instances" setting first.

Of course, if you feel that your paid application experienced an SLA
violation, please fill out the form bellow:
