But AFAIK GAE doesn't use/guarantee sticky sessions, so I am afraid you can't rely on local memory.
"App Engine uses multiple web servers to run your application, and automatically adjusts the number of servers it is using to handle requests reliably. A given request may be routed to any server, and it may not be the same server that handled a previous request from the same user." http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/runtime.html#Requests_and_Servlets It would be interesting to test the performance of an ISessionStore backed by the App Engine datastore.
