Vladimir, I am using the cron job solutions... i know that it´s not the best solutions but it´s working perfectly. I don´t recommend you to use spring in GAE. The spring´s load time is not acceptable in GAE.
I am using VRaptor + Objectify and the startup time is not a problem for me. Sorry about some english mistakes.
