I lease tasks from a pull queue at most once per minute so far less frequently than the limitation of 10 per second described here <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/taskqueue/overview-pull> .
Despite this, I'm getting a significant number of TransientError in my logs (up to 20/day). It isn't a huge deal for me, but I thought I'd mention it here in case it merits some looking in to by the GAE folks. Here is a log example: Traceback (most recent call last): File ... tasks = q.lease_tasks(300, 100) File "/base/data/home/runtimes/python27/python27_lib/versions/1/google/appengine/api/taskqueue/taskqueue.py", line 1897, in lease_tasks return rpc.get_result() File "/base/data/home/runtimes/python27/python27_lib/versions/1/google/appengine/api/apiproxy_stub_map.py", line 613, in get_result return self.__get_result_hook(self) File "/base/data/home/runtimes/python27/python27_lib/versions/1/google/appengine/api/taskqueue/taskqueue.py", line 1809, in ResultHook raise _TranslateError(e.application_error, e.error_detail) TransientError -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
