Along these lines, is there a simple way of determining the size of a user
session at runtime?
Is it as simple as a bit of code that will serialize to a temporary byte array
and read the size?

Has any one tried anything like this?

Thanks in advance.

If you want to scale your application servers horizontally then you will
need to keep your session size below about 4k. After 4k the sessions
start to become to much to manage across servers and the session traffic
between servers becomes a huge performance hit.

Hopefully some-one has some better guidelines (not me!). Best I know
is...
1 - Does anyone know how big is the session storage used internally by
the
server? Any thing you add is additional % that.
2 - I guess the more expensive your web-server the more efficient it's
storage
management would be. Ditto more expensive hardware.
3 - I'd expect these to be constantly improving.
4 - You'd have to bench mark your own configuration.
5 - If you are on Websphere on OS/390 storage should be effectively
infinite &
free - so no worries!!
