For users who have optimized for the current pricing structure, this is an insane switch, to give you an idea I just did the calculation for our AppEngine costs. Ouch... We currently pay about $0.60 a day, so $18 a month On the new system we have 25 instances on average so 24 * 25 * 0.08 = $48 a day or $1440 a month, even with reserved instances this is $900 a month, a x50 increase.... We do thousands of small requests, optimized for low CPU usage and not instance count, guess its time to move.

Don't jump to conclusion too fast. Enable safethreading and you will likely go to 2 or 3 instances, due to the many small requests you have. You may even go to 1 or 2 instances when they have finished optimizing their scheduler. So who knows, you may even end up with a lower monthly bill!!
