This isn't mentioned in the documentation anywhere that I can see. Did I miss it? It seems like an incredibly important point to leave out. > >> Also, the scheduler is still acting crazy.

Given that solution #1 pushes GAE costs over paying for an always-on host from another vendor, and #2 doesn't get you to a reasonable SLA, #3 honestly looks like the best choice from where I'm sitting. I'm trying very hard not to get angry about this. I actually have a good friend who is a developer on App Engine and I want very much to make this work, but it just seems like the scheduler is fundamentally broken, and Google is refusing to recognize it. Am I missing something? For those of you who have apps deployed on GAE, why isn't this behavior killing you? - Kris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
