That's probably the reason why additional instances are created.

Indeed, but there seems to be no explanation for the high latency. On appstats there is a massive gap before any API calls.

I did a little more validation today, and greatly reduced the latency on some of my own queries. I also set the pending latency right up at 2.5s on my app. Most of my requests are now coming in at ~500 ms, yet new instances are still spawning for no apparent reason. My traffic is the lowest it's been since the summer. The only really high latencies (~30000 ms in most cases) are the first request on a new instance. I just don't understand why they are being spawned when there are other instances sat idle. Something has definitely changed.
