title: Heroku - Spin Up
body: <p>I have a site that I deployed to Heroku.  It's a low traffic site so if nobody goes to it for a couple hours and then go to it, it will take about 5-10 seconds to load.  Any other requests to other pages on that site loads up fine quickly.  If I exit the site entirely and check back in a few minutes later, it also comes back up quickly.</p>
  
  <p>It's only if it's left idle for a couple hours that the spin up time is noticeable.  <strong>Does anyone else have this issue?  If so, how did you fix it.</strong></p>
  
  <p>Also while on the topic, does the same thing happen with Google App Engine?  I'm currently just trying out these app hosting platforms so I don't really have any preference for technologies/languages.</p>
