At least that's the route I'll have to take for my free users. Before concurrent Python 2.7 releases. Or before I move to Node.js on micro EC2 with SimpleDB: one year of this configuration costs the same as one instance running 2mo on GAE. Angke On Fri, Sep 2, 2011 at 8:55 AM, GAEfan

If all you said is true, then why the billing in the preview was so cheap for 3 years? BAIT AND SWITCH I call. Angke On Thu, Sep 1, 2011 at 3:33 PM, Wesley C (Google) wrote: > On Wed, Aug 31, 2011 at 10:23 PM, Srirangan wrote: >> >> The mode of operation seems to be: >>

Yet you charge us heavily before all those functions are present. Now I can't treat my own paid/unpaid users separately. Everyone of my users will suffer from a degrade of service because I can't afford so many instances. Good job Google. On Thu, Sep 1, 2011 at 1:29 PM, Gregory D'alesandre wrote

I guess we all need to have the balls to say "fuck this shit, I'm out of here." I mean, at least 100% percent price increase? Concurrent won't be ready a few months after the price change? Quote Eric Cartman: "Screw you guys, I'm going home~" On Aug 31, 10:19 pm, GR wrote: > Surprised to read t

Wow they really did this? Now I'm burnt. I won't deploy future apps on App Engine and will slowly migrate the current ones away. This whole thing is ridiculous. They could totally offer BestBuy $1 monthly bills while charging us $60s. On Aug 31, 7:14 pm, John Wheeler wrote: > Also, bums me ou

Thanks, this solved my problem too. Just note that App Engine Launcher doesn't seem to use the default system python, my default python is python2.5, but had to go to app engine launcher's settings to force it to use python2.5, otherwise it throws _ctype error. Just my two cents On Sep 5, 3:44
