30 minutes of DeadlineExceededError waiting for datastore, is the appengine status online?

My application (regalatufoto-v6) has suffered of 30 minutes of DeadlineExceededError, new instances of my application take 30s to load now (thanks to python 2.7 and threadsafe).

Anyone suffered this problem? Appengine status says everything's fine, but definitively the datastore was taking too long to respond.

Thanks

This is happening for us too.  We suffered the same problem 2 days ago, but the duration lasted about 3-4 hours.  We are also getting errors adding to the task queue as well.

We are running Python 2.7 in an attempt to be cost effective, but it seems this is not really an option at this point.  I have a list of other issues as well, but I will save for another post.

Also, it would be nice if someone from Google could comment on this issue!

I never saw these issues using Python 2.5, but now there are intermittent issues making calls to the datastore and task queue.  Is this 2.7 related or is this coincidence?  In other words, our app needs to be up 24/7, so do I need to switch back to 2.5 or is it not going to make a difference?

Please let us know what's going on so we can take the proper action.  

Thanks.

My HR app which I haven't brought over to 2.7 has not had any issues. For what it's worth.

Thanks for the info.  Yeah, we ran almost flawlessly with HR and 2.5 since our launch in August.  We just switched to 2.7 to try to counter the new pricing model, but it's not stable enough.  We're going to switch back I guess.  The new pricing model is killing us.

Thanks everyone for the report. We are looking into this.

My application (java) has been dying from DeadlineExceededErrors since Friday.  Overall performance sees a lot slower as well.
