Hi,

With billing, you can send as many emails as you can process during the 30
second request deadline.  So while you can pay for sending as many emails as
you would like, the request deadline will still be a factor in completing
any App Engine operations.

I don't know how many emails you can send in 30 seconds (I've never tried to
test the limit), but I'd imagine it would be on the order of 30.

So is there any way to have that process die, and then call a new
process automatically. Or, is there a way to run many processes in
parallel. Like suppose I need to send out ~5000 emails? What would be
the best way to do that?

Hi,

The two solutions that come to mind for now is to run remote_api on your
machine or set up a client side javascript solution that could call a
handler every few seconds.

Eventually we plan to offer cron and long running processes which would be
the ideal solution.
