I have one big problem and one minor problem with keeping information in sessions - it takes memory, and you have no way of telling when this will released (sure if session timeouts, then you might suspect that it will be cleaned any time soon, but its always up to the gc to do that, so never sure) - when using load balancing you have to use sticky redirection to the server maintaining the session object for this user (but this is not very important yet and I know you will have to do that with only a sessionid key in the client object as well)
