Hey, I don't know how to check logs to determine which request causes the instance to spin up. I don't think I have any web.xml file, cause I didn't upload any. My app.yaml files contains:
application: MyApplicationName version: 1 runtime: python api_version: 1 handlers: - url: /(.*\.(gif|png|jpg|ico|js|css|pdf)) static_files: \1 upload: (.*\.(gif|png|jpg|ico|js|css|pdf)) - url: .* script: main.py Does using cache minimize instance hours? If so, how can I use cache?
