what's the maximum qps that a single durable object can handle?


An object is limited to one thread. How many qps that is depends entirely on what your app does, since the app can run arbitrary code in the request handler...


sorry for wording the original question poorly, let me rephrase: what are the CPU and RAM usage limits that back that single object thread, will that be something developer have control on?




Interesting!


I wonder if this could be used as an IoT/RPi OS, maybe swaping v8 for https://github.com/cesanta/v7 to make the footprint even more lightweight.


this is a great idea, thanks. I wish v7 had the same c++ API as v8 so it could be easily swapped though.


You need to upgrade boot2docker CLI binary (boot2docker upgrade only update the iso image).

See: https://github.com/boot2docker/boot2docker-cli/issues/294


Thanks. Got it working now.


CoreOS is already working great on GCE http://coreos.com/docs/running-coreos/cloud-providers/google... We also wanted to offer a way for regular Debian users to get easily started with Docker on GCE.


How about Fedora (etc.)?


Yes, we'd love to support those as well.

The agent https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/container-agent and manifest format https://developers.google.com/compute/docs/containers#contai... are not distro specific, and the glue to start them on boot could be easily adapted to other distro.


Fedora isn't really meant to be a server distro -- it's a bleeding-edge distro so it has rapid releases, a short life-cycle, and lots of new code.

As the Fedora docs say, it's "often running in uncharted innovative territory," which is great if you want the latest stuff on your desktop, but it's not what you really want in a server distro. Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is derived from Fedora every few years so it's battle tested and stable, in the same way Debian is.

For servers in the Red Hat lineage, use RHEL or CentOS, esp now that Red Hat has officially joined forces with CentOS (http://www.redhat.com/about/news/press-archive/2014/1/red-ha...).


Yep - that's why I threw the etc. in there.

And we have to use the indefinite article, "a desktop", never … your desktop.


My experience with containers on CentOS was not nearly as enjoyable as my experience with containers on Debian/Ubuntu. Although it was[more than]likely user–error, unless someone else can relate. Not an answer, I know… just venting.


Which version? resolution? zoom-level 0?
