Session variables are unique to each user, time out after a period of time,
and are stored in RAM. Client variables are unique to each user, don't time
out, and are stored in an external database or in the Registry.
Session variables aren't scalable because two ( or three, or five )
clustered servers can't share them, as they are stored in the initiating
servers RAM.

Subject: Client and session variables same thing different
I was looking at the url for commerce blocks that was posted a
little bit ago and saw thier structure, array, wddx tutorial. Now the
question I have is, they say that session variables aren't very scalable,
but client variables are. What's the difference and where do I find client
variables explained more?
