Our queries and indices are rather simple. I should clarify: The particular problem I'm talking about is a view that currently has a response time of about 360ms and almost all of the time (280ms) is spent on datastore put()/fetch()/get(). IOW, runtime CPU usage is low. If you only read data then 360ms would probably consume less than 1500mcycles, but since this view primarily writes to the datastore it consumes more than 10,000mcycles! That's really bothering me because I already get yellow warnings for views that consume more than 1000mcycles and here I have red warnings. How am I supposed to implement a simple write operation if it eats mcycles so quickly? Can I just ignore the warning since only runtime cpu counts and we primarily consume datastore cpu in this case? Still, isn't the factor of mycles consumption for write operations a little bit too high? > > How quickly should a transaction finish in order to not cause a CPU > > warning if it only does one single get() and put()? > > There isn't a solid limit in terms of time for write operations.
