We still have this bug in spades. This bug makes java versions that are not the default version *completely*unusable. There are no resident instances for non-default versions. So unless your traffic is already enough to keep more than one instance in memory, you will have lots of user requests hitting cold instances. This results in consistent 15+ second response times for some java app versions. I don't see how you can get enough traffic to sustain more than one instance with 15+ second response times being the norm.
As a result, we had to port or fold away all of our secondary app versions to python because java is not viable for that use case. This was a huge duplication of effort for a small team. GAE java is dead to us for new features. We can no longer give access to beta java versions (they are non-default) because they are unusable in low traffic scenarios. This stings the most, since our users can no longer critique any versions except the "default" one. On Thursday, January 10, 2013 10:00:40 AM UTC-8, Mark wrote: > > I am also experience this problem.
