No, I haven't had issues with static assets but then again, the current example is pretty bare bones. I've certainly noticed that GAE is dog slow though. I read about how GAE scales and it's evident in our example as well that GAE just spawns new JVMs rather the new threads for additional instance fairly often. You end up using memcache and having to optimize for GAE quite a bit. I wouldn't run a production system on GAE. The bigger issue for me is no threading - if I was satisfied with that I'd just do PHP apps. Decent hosted VMs cost less than $50/month and they are blazingly fast compared to GAE. Depending on where you live and what the system does it's not a huge cost; but fully understand the other side of it as well - can't beat free.
