appengine log console extremely slow

Question

I am using the python app engine and finding that the log console on the local development server is terribly slow. Output to this window seems to show in chunks of about 5-15 lines every second. Is that typical? I find that it's so slow that it hinders my debugging time waiting for log data to appear.

Answer 1

I suppose this may be as good an answer as any under the circumstance. Basically, I closed and reopened google app engine launcher, and the outputting was back to being appropriately fast. If anyone has a suggestion why this happens, that would be great. For now, though, at least this makes the slowness go away.
