Re: These features would make CloudSQL a killer solution: replicated n-instances for reads and async queries

Some searches will involve querying multiple shards.  Right now this is done sequentially.  It would be great if I could send n number of queries asynchronously to execute in parallel, just like in GAE's datastore.  I suppose I could create a light wrapper and then use n async URLFetches against my own app, but I'd have to serialize and deserialize my resultsets somehow.  That's my backup plan, but it would be great for this to be supported right in the API.

Has anyone dealt with these issues already? I couldn't find open issues for these in the tracker, is this something I should open a new issue on?

Would it be possible to execute the queries in parallel using task queues?
