Is there a way to speed up task queue execution of the with the python dev server?

It appears the simulated task queue that ships with the development server processes tasks serially. Is there a way to run tasks concurrently with the dev server? I'm assuming with the 2.7 threadsafe stuff, this should be possible?

In short, no! Forget about the dev server for the more advanced work is my advice, deploy deploy deploy!

GVR says:

the dev_appserver does not emulate the threading behavior of the production servers, and you'd be surprised to find that it works just fine after you deploy your app.

from a similar question: GAE python threads not executing in parallel

Although that's relevant to tasks, you have to assume that if the threading behaviour of the servers is not emulated on the dev server neither is the 'threaded' task behaviour.
