Jeff, Quick question about CF, since you are somewhat familiar. I currently use nginx on an EC2 instance to handle SSL on a custom domain. Also, though, this setup allows me to do things like: redirect all naked domain requests to www redirect all http requests to https reverse proxy www.exampl

Re: [google-appengine] >15 second response times

2012-03-30 Thread Mark Rathwell
Those slow requests are being handled by new instances, and so must load the app before they can handle the request, and this can take 15-45 seconds. The scheduler is supposed to route requests to existing instances, and have, in theory, idle instances already warmed up to route requests to when l
