Group items tagged

you can only expect to update any single entity or entity group about five times a second. That is an estimate and the actual update rate for an entity is dependent on several attributes of the entity, including how many properties it has, how large it is, and how many indexes need updating. While a single entity or entity group has a limit on how quickly it can be updated, App Engine excels at handling many parallel requests distributed across distinct entities, and we can take advantage of this by using sharding.
