This has come up a number of times in the past. Timestamps are based on the
clock on the server running your Python code. Google makes no official
guarantees about clock skew in the cluster, although presumably they are
all NTP synchronized. In practice, 30s of overlap is going to work 99.9% of

Hi again Vinny,
A related question about implementing pull updates. I would like to pull
only the updates since the previous pull, but if possible I would like to
avoid recording which updates have been delivered to each client.
How much can I trust the datastore timestamps (i.e. auto_now)? The h

Thanks for your insight. In my case updates are relatively infrequent and
latency is not a big problem, so I guess I'll

Hello Pertti,
Polling once a minute is quite slow, actually. You don't need the channel
API for updates that are infrequent as once/minute.The Channel API is meant
for realtime communications (i.e. seconds/less-than-second difference
between messages) - for example, if you were implementing a c
