When it was first announced it seemed terrible - the estimate for even the unused development site was significant. But then I tracked that down to some dumb coding of my own (a much-too-frequent cron-job). With that fixed, the site is pretty efficient (which is by design - it's supposed to scale well, after all). So I'm hoping it will work out OK. This is very much (I think) the kind of site that should work well on GAE - there's a lot of scope for caching.
And this is one motivation for posting here - I want to see how well it handles higher traffic. Hopefully from that I can work out what a decent amount to charge would be (originally I was hoping for as low as a dollar a month a feed, but the changes may push that higher - perhaps significantly so).
