Rythm's behaviour on Google App Engine

[Harshdeep S Jawanda]

Hi,

Where does Rythm store the compiled templates when it comes to Google App Engine usage?

Since in GAE the JVM can often be started and shut down, what happens when the JVM is restarted? Does Rythm have to recompile the templates each time the JVM is started (assuming the templates themselves haven't changed), or does it just pull them out of some durable storage?

File IO is disabled on GAE, thus Rythm won't be able to cache the compiled templates to persistent storage, and it needs to compile templates each time JVM started.

So that means that for low-traffic websites Rythm is only slightly better than interpreted templates. Bummer.

How about storing the templates to GAE Datastore? If you want to save the compiled template either the Blob type or the Blobstore should suffice. What do you think? Is this do-able?

At the moment it's not doable.
