- _ques 16y ago"Google Appengine has a lot of limitations" Well, that is kind of exactly what this question is asking, right? "and is still sees frequent downtime." Ok, so downtime is a valid reason. "GAE is simply not a viable solution for a site with reddit's traffic at this time." Again, not sure if I can learn anything from this sentence.
