The view logs link in the instances screen does not show logs or is broken. Hence, you cannot find out which instance served the traffic.

Whey should the resident instance be idle, and the traffic served by dynamic instance, with resident instance being idle. What is the use of the pending latency setting in the Application Settings. I have set it to 4sec - automatic. With this setting, I understand that, if there is a request waiting in the queue for less than 4s, then it should be served by the resident instance. There is no need to create a new instance, and getting charged for the new instance hours. > Can you double check your logs, and specifically look at the instance id > that is recorded on each log?
