In the future if Google's scheduler is not optimal, you will be charged for it. What is the incentive to get it right? How will you know it is right? Here's another perverse incentive: under the current scheme memory usage is used as an input to the scheduler as well as latency and start-up time. Apps which use less memory can have more instances at the same resource cost to Google. My incentive is to optimise memory usage. Under the upcoming scheme you are charged per-instance, so there is zero incentive to optimise memory usage. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
