Hi,
my web2py instance (about 1 pageviews, 30+ ajax requests
daily) crashes about daily. As a workaround I have a script which
(re)starts the server when either memory usage exceeds certain
threshold or when the server is completely down. I run the script from
cron every minute.

I changed my css files in the static section but there are cached, so
the results were the same as before. I examined this with firebug. How

I love GAE. Most of my work is small apps for various clients and
getting familiar with each clients hosting would be too much overhead.
To speed up your app use memcache everywhere and keep your app warm.

in web2py you CANNOT store an object into a session unless you store
it already serialized. This is because the session is retrieved before
your code is executed and therefore before the module in question is
imported.

complex references), retrieve them by key/id (no complex queries) and

data.
