I've developed a service on GAE, that takes small POSTS (160 bytes)
from devices in the field, and stores them into the datastore.
A device will send a package of 4 notes once a minute,
during operational hours.  These notes are unpacked
and placed into the datastore (one entity Note).

I started a simple benchmark of 1,000 devices.
To my surprise, I got a bunch of these errors:
"too much contention on these datastore entities.
please try again."

1000 devices * 4 notes per minute gives me a rate of
approximately 67 inserts per second.

Is this an issue with the 'beta', or is this a reality
of the datastore?

Thank you,

BTW, I was using approximately 10 CPU seconds per second
during this run.
