For environments like GAE you don't want setuptools and its magic to be part of your application. This is were repackaging your entire app into one zipped egg or some other flat structure comes in handy. Setuptools and eggs are a distribution format from my point of view. They are certainly not the best way to deploy your applications. The growing sys.path is affecting performance to some degree in all deployment environments.
