I posted about this in 2012. Another important reason not to start sessions on 
startup is loadbalancer health checks. We have 17 roundcube servers all being 
health checked every few seconds on the same session table. Im now doing health 
checks on a deep link into the apache process so rc isnt being touched, but 
that way I cant really be certain rc is working.
