Hi Mark, How long ago did you upload the dos.yaml file? Because it can take a little while to be fully propagated.
If you waited a little while (I'd say an hour should be long enough) and you still see these requests going through 100% of the time, this may be some kind of issue. I would then suggest you post this on our Issue Tracker <https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/list>, along with your appID, your dos.yaml (if it is longer than the lines you've shown here), the print screen from the old and new console, so we can further investigate.
