The session variables are not cleared automatically. If a user logs out only the symfony authenticated variable is set to false and all the session data you added to the user session is still available.
This is actually a GOOD thing. In our example, our interface uses a tabbing system within the application stored in session. When a user logs out and logs back in he still has the tabs he made previously. There are other things that we manually remove from session on log out/log in. One way to ensure that the users session is emptied when he logs in again is on login manually set those session variables using sfUser->setParameter() to nothing.
