I am having issue fetching a html from user's specified url, which very often takes 10+ seconds (maybe it's outside US, maybe it's a cold start, maybe it's just plain slow).
I am retrying the request every hour, but quite often it will fail again. However, if another request is made immediately, it will likely succeed. Retrying actually use more resources in the end. Will this limit ever be lifted or relaxed? There seems to be no way around it if the page do take 11 seconds to load. Also, I want to point out that calling URLs served by other app on app engine can cause timeout (if it's a cold start request). This makes it hard for our own apps to communicate with each other (since different app can't share same datastore). Maybe an asynchronous URL fetch service will be nice (with longer timeout). The service can be similar to the queue service, except that it takes a fetch-url and the fetched data is served to the callback- url. Anyone facing this problem and have a solution?
