I am getting the following error in App Engine after I deployed it. Does anybody know the reason? It’s causing an error page sometimes. It seems simplejson is the cause…

According to http://code.google.com/status/appengine/ everyting should be working accordingly.

This request caused a new process to be started for your application, and thus caused your application code to be loaded for the first time. This request may thus take longer and use more CPU than a typical request for your application.

This is the error that the page will show: 

Error: Server Error
The server encountered an error and could not complete your request.

If the problem persists, please report your problem and mention this error message and the query that caused it.

It seems this is not the only error causing the 500 error. Because most of the time this seems to be the cause:

Request was aborted after waiting too long to attempt to service your request. This may happen sporadically when the App Engine serving cluster is under unexpectedly high or uneven load. If you see this message frequently, please contact the App Engine team.

    Here’s your problem:

    <class 'google.appengine.runtime.DeadlineExceededError'>

    Your page is too slow, it should load within 30 seconds. Otherwise the App Engine will kill it.
