30 requests per second for static resources is small enough to be insignificant. You should be able to serve it happily with a micro instance, so something seems very wrong here.
It is possible that app engine has a lot of latency, so out of those 100ms, only 1ms or less is spent in your web server, the rest of the 99 in the app engine infrastructure. In this case throwing more resources on the machine is not going to do much. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
