Hi Ikai,

It's mostly CPU time that it's using now just generating the test data. The
costs are lower than I expected though so no problem (and interesting to
note in the article).

I can't find any up to date information about the datastore timeout limits.
In 1.4 the background task timeout is 10 minutes, but long before that I get
a datastore timeout for a select all query with a dataset of a few million
rows. I know you shouldn't normally do this, but it's just to test and get
some numbers. Any idea about this?

Paul
