Thank you Ryan the post provided exactly what I needed to hear about
Datastore api behaviour. I will be tuned in for your Google I-O
presentation.
In some respects I am relieved to read that an App is usually only
served from one location because if not I would have remained puzzled
as to how

One aspect that neither Ryan nor anybody else in this thread touched
upon is the entity hierarchy relationship. I understand that

entities that have the same GAE ancestry. This along with hints in the
documentation and

I cant find the reference now, but the Datastore (and even memcache I
beleive) works as a single global 'entity', there is only one.
Transactions are global too, and the datastore is consistant.
basically you the application designer has to make so consideration if
the app runs on a single, or

I agree that from an API usage perspective the Datastore is a single

Hi,
...typical single entity Datastore fetch times are

Maybe my assumption that GAE would spin up multiple web processes for
a single app dispersed around the globe is incorrect...
The first doesn't necessarily imply the second. Remember
