I tried both. Going ab -> frontend -> backend is _much_ slower than going directly to a backend. You can see the code for testing backends here: https://github.com/stickfigure/wh-test There is a bunch of extra code in there you should ignore. The important methods are: /noop - returns static string from frontend /bnoop - urlfetch from frontend to backend which returns static string /backend/noop - directly to backend to return static string /away - just does a urlfetch to a rackspacecloud vps instance There's pretty much no code here. Just handlers that do nothing. Jeff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
