I’m working with Google now on this, providing monitoring, trace, other metrics. I don’t think it’s working as documented. Closing this thread.

I can load my new version fine and it runs fine alone, but I want to be able to test the new version on the prod instance before I swap traffic over to the new version. Otherwise I have to shut down the old version, shutting off live traffic when I switch while I test my new version before I officially send traffic to it. The great thing about versions to me is that I can run them simultaneously so I keep traffic up on prod and I test my prod environ on the new version at the same time. For those who aren’t aware, you can run (or more!) two versions simultaneously on one instance. Example: Say app.yaml version is set to “1”. Version 1 (“default”) when deployed will run at http://yourprojectname.appspot.com Change app.yaml version to “2” and upload. Version 2 will upload to http://2.yourprojectname.appspot.com. It won’t become the default version at http://yourprojectname.appspot.com until you swap your live traffic over to it 100% (a feature available from the dashboard). Then, it automagically becomes http://yourprojectname.appspot.com. But, in between, you can run side by side, and send GETs/POSTs directly to http://2.yourprojectname.appspot.com to unit test the new version while the previous version is still live as the default version on the default URL. That’s what I’m trying to do, and that as I understood it is why Google allows you to do it this way.

Suppose Version 1 of your app uses exactly 64MB memory at startup. In that case, you can't start Version 2 of you app if it uses so much as one byte more memory than version 1, since 64MB + 64MB + 1 byte > 128MB. (Yes, it's a soft limit, but here's my point-->). What's the purpose of versions then? It isn't testing two versions side by side on the same instance in this case because one can't. I actually have this problem now. I have an app that starts up at 50MB and have added a feature that increases it to 100MB (some large in-memory hash lookups were added). However, I can't run them side by side on one F1 instance as I exceed my 128MB capacity, when *both individually* are under 128MB. I should be able to do this. What exactly is the point of GAE versions otherwise? I should be able to stand up both and route traffic to both via the provided features to do so without production failing due to this problem.
