AppEngine instance uses now better servers so lag should have been reduced
Three compilers will now be processing app builds:
Dedicated VPS Cloud servers with 2 CPUs up to 3.1GHz, 4GB of RAM and 100MB/s of minimum bandwidth

It will also automatically stop forwarding traffic to compilers that are down until they are fixed
