I may be wrong, but I would bet that the reason for having two
configuration options is that the method of the scheduler that we use
requires those two parameters.

As far as I can tell the only real value of the first parameter
(UserSessionTimeOutInterval) is to disable completely session cleanup if
the value is negative, and that seems mostly useless, as doing so would
generate a memory leak.

I would suggest to completely remove the first parameter. I will then be
clear that for your purpose the only relevant one is the second.
