This depends on if you require the entire survey to be filled out or if
partial information is acceptable.  We have done both.  For most of the
survey applications we've built we wanted the complete survey and throw away
any that are incomplete so we uses session variables.  30-50 surveys a day
is not much to be concerned about for resources as that is a relatively low
volume in the scheme of things especially with session timeout of 20-30
minutes
