Hello Stefano,
When you say that after the deprecation of the compat java flexible runtime one is force to come back to the standard environment, you might have overlooked one of the alternatives. This excellent alternative would be the flexible environment <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/java/flexible-for-standard-users>, that offers some services similar to the standard environment, especially important among these being scalability <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/>. You can simply adapt <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/migrating> your app to the Flexible Environment using Google Cloud Client libraries <https://cloud.google.com/apis/docs/cloud-client-libraries>. If you decide to keep your application running in the standard environment, there are a few avenues leading to improved latency <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/go/console/managing-resources>. Firstly, your code seems to take the bulk of the response time, one sees 17746 ms for yap/action/TecDocGenericArticlesGetAction (Timestamp 2016-12-05 (12:12:20.790)). By contrast, Google platform services provide about 2 ms reaction time. The app.yaml settings you have chosen can be fine tuned too. The two main parameters are min pending latency of 0.500 ms, that can be increased, and Max Concurrent Request set to 5 when the default is 50. Playing around with these 2 parameters may improve latency markedly, and avoid the launching of new instances, but the main source of delay seems to be somewhere in your code. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
