Hello, I would like to add that whenever you send a start request <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/nodejs/how-instances-are-managed#startup> an instance is brought into existence and is initialized. So it needs some time to load the required libraries and resources to handle the request.
You may consider using warmup requests <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/nodejs/how-instances-are-managed#warmup_requests> to load application code into an instance ahead of time. As explained in this document <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/nodejs/configuring-warmup-requests>, warmup requests reduce request and response latency during the time when your app's code is being loaded to a newly created instance. You can provision min_idle_instances <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/nodejs/config/appref#min_idle_instances> afterward so that a number of instances be kept running and ready to serve traffic without lag. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
