Greg mentioned he was putting together an FAQ so let's help him out! 

If you're going to answer this just put in your question into a single line, 
let's not try and answer them here or give opinions, there's plenty of other 
threads for that. I do understand that Google doesn't have answers to some 
these.

Here's my list:

1) What is the time granularity of the instance pricing?  ie if I have an 
instance up for 5 minutes, what am I charged, $0.08 / 60*5?
2) Will I be able to tune the scheduler myself, ie set it to performance or 
low cost,  Will I be able to limit the min or max number of instances 
created (with the obvious impact on user experience)?
3) Python concurrency, will this require any code changes, do you have any 
estimates based on your testing of the number of well behaved requests per 
second a single instance will be able to handle for a given framework?
4) Database charges, when can you give us more details over what Max gave in 
the other thread, are you charging for deletes, what do you expect the ratio 
to be between the new pricing metric and the Datastore API calls metric we 
have today?
5) Will you be charging differently for instances that use different amounts 
of memory, since this seems to be the cost that you're going after that 
isn't charged for in the current model.

Thanks,
Kenneth
