Hi Adligo,
The limit on concurrent instances of your app is not a hard one - it will
increase as your app gets more traffic. The only situation you're likely to
run into it is if you have a lot of requests that take a long time to
complete - eg, if you're calling time.sleep() in your request handler. As
long as you're serving your requests reasonably efficiently, you can expect
the number of concurrent requests your app is allowed to scale up with load.
