I have an App Engine project as backend for an iOS app. The default module 
has dynamic scaling and is mostly idle. I have a separate module with 
manual scaling and 1 instance always running, which is constantly checking 
the task queue for notifications to send. After this module was deployed, 
instance hours exploded and I now have estimated charge of $54 for this 
month. I basically followed the pattern that was described in this 
tutorial: 
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/java/taskqueue/overview-push

This pricing is unacceptable for a low traffic app like ours. Is my only 
other and cheaper option to just handle the sending of push notifications 
directly in the request to the default module, instead of enqueueing it in 
the task queue?
