Why are App Engine Datastore small operations DATASTORE_SMALL still billed according to appstats?

In my appstats _ah/stats, one of the line says:

 @3717ms datastore_v3.Next real=21ms api=0ms cost=3000 billed_ops=[DATASTORE_SMALL:300]

I thought they are free, according to the Pricing page.

This is the result of EntityClass.query().filter(some filter).filter(some filter).fetch(keys_only=True).

Am I mistaken?

Solution

  • You are not mistaken. It's a known issue that the pricing in Appstats is outdated. See here.
