Thanks. I was unaware of this option. I found some information about that option here: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/appconfig.html#Precompilation Is this a way for GAE to run .pyc files? Does byte compiling provide benefit beyond precompiled? My idea was to take advantage of the `compile` feature of web2py to distribute a commercial web2py app running on GAE. -- Mat On Thu, Aug 5, 2010 at 10:48 PM, Chris S <[email protected]> wrote: > Can I ask what advantage running a compiled app is on GAE? > > There is a new (experimental or beta I forget) option you can use in > the app.yaml file: > derived_file_type: > - python_precompiled > > Does byte compiling provide benefit beyond precompiled? > It's quite possible it does and I just don't understand the difference > in the two. > > On Aug 5, 2:38 pm, mat -- <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Did you check that? > > > > No. I was using 2.6 > > > > I may be wrong but this is the impression I got last time I checked. > > > > Yes, that seems to be indeed the case.
