personally, i think the registry is a less-than-desirable place to store
client vars.

the problem with session vars is if CF server restarts itself (which can,
sometimes, be a good thing) you lose the session. i use client vars
exclusively over session vars now (and cookies too) and store them in a DB.
not as fast as memory in *theory*, but in practice it's more reliable and
there's no difference in the performance of my applications.

I recon you're correct!  Session vars are stored in memory, Client vars are
stored in any number of different locations (registry, client cookies, ODBC
datasource).

OK guys and gals......

Do Client vars take up more server RAM than session Vars.  My colleague
reckons they do wheras I reckon it's the t'other way round
