Well that is a problem...
Hmm I actually haven't done much testing with that as I use client variables
stored in a database. If you use client variables, I think the lowest they
could time you out is 1 day because its set up to purge the tables not clear
ram. They also might be more flexible about the amount of time before they
purge the tables, because it doesn't affect thier resources. Client
variables work just like Session variables functionally, the only draw back
is you are hitting the database to store them. However this is a minor
performance hit when compared to the ease of scalability client variables
offer.
