Thanks for the response. If I understand the response correctly it is okay to enable the multithreading option in app.yaml because web2py already is thread-safe? (I am trying to use Python 2.7 on GAE - this is an experimental feature on GAE but I feel it is the way to go) I don't understand the implication of the second sentence though - if responses are not serialized, what should I watch out for? I looked through the book and it speaks about concurrent database transactions, but not much else.
