Tuning the instance settings I was able to get this down to $1.35 on the same volume numbers as the $3 was before. This brings pricing to 25% more than it was when we were in beta. When Half price instances end next month we'll be at 2.5x pre-beta well with in our expectations for pricing.

Basically I moved from Python 2.5 to Python 2.7. Did the work to be thread safe. And optimized how I use Instance Memory, MemCache, And DataStore. Along with Fixing my Cache Headers. This post was less of a "How To" and more of a "Chances are GAE has given you the tools to lower the price of your App enough to offset most of the change in post beta pricing" -Brandon -----Original Message----- From: google-appengine@googlegroups.com [mailto:google-appengine@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Amethi Sent: Saturday, November 26, 2011 2:42 AM To: Google App Engine Subject: [google-appengine] Re: Quantified Price Reduction through Optimizations Hi Brandon, thanks for sharing, the results are exceptional. I'm new here, so forgive me if I'm missing something obvious, but is some some earlier material explaining what you've done?
