To properly set the stage for this discussion, why exactly do you want
this? Where do you see the problem with a "big" sessionstore.js file?
What problems are you currently hitting that you think will be fixed by
downsizing sessionstore.js?

I do agree with the two other posts, I don't want any of my data gone
automatically. Some weeks ago we landed a patch[1] that automatically
purges closed/windows and tabs that are older than two weeks. I still am
not a big fan of that but it seemed worth trying without causing too
much harm. Turns out that this patch doesn't actually achieve[2] what it
should.

As said above I think it would be great to get some basic questions
answered before we talk about purging data. Maybe there are other ways
to mitigate the problems you're seeing. We shouldn't talk about a
specific solution before stating the problem.
