To be clear, my problem isn't with startup time per se. My problem is that despite having an active instance that has been idle for 7 seconds, GAE decided to spin up a new instance, causing a significant user-visible delay.
Secondarily, I'm puzzled as to why I didn't get a warmup request, but as I mentioned, the docs explicitly state that warmup requests aren't guaranteed, so perhaps that is expected. - Kris On Wednesday, September 26, 2012 1:09:14 AM UTC-7, Rekby wrote: > > I have same problem with startup delay > http://stackoverflow.com/q/12581110/1204368 > > PS.
