Jeff, I believe that you had asked on this list, a while ago:  In what 
circumstance is it _ever_ good for user requests to see cold starts?

Did you ever get an answer to that?  That is the part that puzzles me 
still.  Is it just too hard?  Maybe they don't have a _scalable_ algorithm 
for directing requests to already-existing instances?

Anyway, with all of the focus on the Compute Engine side, I wonder if 
improvements to App Engine are going to deprioritized.
