Christian, thanks for the feedback. Is it possible that the times you experienced slow load up was because the applications were put to sleep? I think unless you have reserved instances, GAE does that to applications that have not been accessed recently. If not, it is slightly disappointing that GAE will not be very reliable when it comes to loading speed. That is certainly very helpful to know, so thanks again.
