Datastore read costs for nil entities

[Andy Haskell]

I am working on optimizing datastore calls, and saw that the cost of datastore read calls is 6 cents per 100,000 entities worth of reads. If I do a datastore.Get call for an entity that isn't in the datastore, does that count as a datastore read, or is it only considered a datastore read if the entity is actually in the datastore?

each .get() counts as one read operation. plus query counts dbreads as number of entities, restored from datastore.
