>From a development point, I find db-based client vars infintely easier to
work with. Since all the vars are on a SQL server, I can query the server to
see the state of all variables at any point in an application's flow. If
you've got a 2nd development workstation at your desk, with some sort of SQL
query tool, or even a CF page to check status, you can spy out client
variables while an application is functioning; not just when it bombs out or
is CFABORTed.
Also, the occasionally irritating issue of unwanted persistance is cured for
good. Want to delete a client variable? Issue a DELETE statement, and you
know its gone.
