Is it expected that AppEngine Standard performs significantly slower than Cloud Run when a connection to Cloud SQL (Postgres) is involved?
Testing whether to move away from AWS and which GCP solution to move to and have fired up instances of Cloud Run and AppEngine to test a NestJS API. Having added logging to isolate just the time taken to query the DB as part of an API call, the same GET request that takes 400ms query time on average in Cloud Run takes 2100ms in AppEngine. To clarify this is the same source, same build deployed to both and these are the times once warm so I'm excluding the first few requests. For any code not talking to my Cloud SQL instance, i.e. a dummy javascript method to chew up some CPU time, the performance is more or less identical Cloud SQL, AppEngine and Cloud Run are all set up in the same region (australia-southeast1), and connection from GAE and Cloud Run to Cloud SQL is for both via Private IP and Serverless VPC. Since I'm in free tier whilst trialing my options, I tried chat support and basically got down to (verbatim) "cloud run is design to handle data from apis with cloud sql" while "app engine is recommended for webhosting". I'm assuming this is wrong and and a 3-5x slower query performance to Cloud SQL from GAE isn't an expectation? Any pointers in terms of where this may be failing? I haven't yet tried via Public IP and wasn't keen to but I will likely repeat my tests on both to see if that makes any difference and post my updates here. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
