Azure, Amazon, and other instance-based cloud computing providers can be used to run website load tests (by replicating numerous instances of running programs that send requests to a set of URLs), and I was wondering if I could do this with Google App Engine
So far, this does not seem to be the case. The only implementation I can think of now is to set the maximum number of cron jobs, each of which runs at the highest frequency, each task requesting a bunch of URLs, and at the same time completing additional tasks in the task queue .
According to my calculations, this is only enough to remove a maximum of 25 concurrent requests (since the application can have a maximum of 20 cron tasks each run no more than once per minute, and the default queue has a throughput of 5 requests per second .
Any ideas if there is a way so I can get more concurrent requests by getting the urls in an automatic way?
