Storing Client variables in anything but cookies is less efficient than
storing session variables in RAM. It's simply faster to get something out of
the memory owned by a process than it is to read a file or query a database.
That's why you cache things in memory.

Keep in mind that efficiency and robustness are often antagonistic goals.
Increasing performance often involves losing stability. Storing Client
variables in the registry, however, is neither efficient nor robust.
