Hi Aral, Your "25% ready for primetime" certainly depends on what criteria you are basing your decisions on. I personally disagree, but my needs are possibly very different. My number one requirement is scalability. For that I give it two thumbs up, and for everything else I'm willing to adapt to achieve that one goal.
If I wanted to put a 2MB file on App Engine and couldn't, I certainly wouldn't knock App Engine 25% for it. (Although I think I can. Simply by splitting the file and concatenating the blobs as I write the response.) To me it also sounds like you're knocking App Engine on some points without profiling live code with real world usage. You say: "In my tests, I've found that the high CPU limit can be randomly triggered even in calls that return within a second. To tell you the truth, I don't actually know what causes these." If you don't know what causes the problems, then find out? Is it in your code? Is it a datastore put timeout? Profile it? Also, make sure you run tests that are accurate representations of real world usage patterns and curves. Typically the guard mechanisms kick in when devs run tests that jump from 0 calls to 1000 calls per second, without any kind of ramp up. That's not a good representation of real world usage. In terms of the offsets, etc. Personally it's not a big deal for me. Once I had a better understanding of the architecture it became more obvious why certain limitations are in place. Those limitations are the reason why this platform can scale so beautifully. -Dave On Oct 3, 11:52 am, Aral Balkan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I just wrote up a blog post summarizing the biggest issues I have with > App Engine:http://aralbalkan.com/1504 > > If you are developing real-world/commercial apps with App Engine, > please add your thoughts to the discussion. > > Thanks, > Aral --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
