Google Analytics is Javascript based, it won't show bot activity.
I concur.
Further, if you've configured a new style xml sitemap with say hourly
update instructions then bots will be crawling all over your site with
much greater regularity.
Analytics & the javascript type logging tools are only useful for
tracking human use - you'll need to monitor your server logs to get real
traffic figures.
Some bots also use sessions.
I disagree, the bot has no capability to decide to use a session.
A bot would only appear to use a session if it was HTTP/1.1 capable, and
was handling cookies or encoded URLs properly.
Most bots get pages asynchronously, I've observed Googlebot hitting url
encoded pages with jsessionids generated days beforehand, during a
previous index run. This will trigger a new session as a result, but
may account for apparently older creation dates appearing the list of
active/recent session.
(A guess: I don't know enough about the internals of Tomcat to be sure
of that.)

Subject: Re: Large number of active sessions
1. Sure. But I have only 100 users.
2. Users: Google Analytics. Sessions: Tomcat manager
3. 5.5.17
4. Yes
Guess I have to go the long way of creating my own session listener then,
Had hoped there was an easy solution for this. 13000 sessions must indicate
that something is very very wrong? I've never had more than 300 visitors
according to Google Analytics...

Hi!
I've got a website with pretty low traffic (200 visitors a day). Lately
it's
been very slow and when I look in Tomcat's manager it says that it has a
lot
of sessions.
Once I had 13000(!) active sessions. The session timeout is set to 30
minutes.
How can this happen? Isn't this something that Tomcat should handle
itself?
Can it be related to my code somehow? I have only basic JSP/Servlet
stuff so
nothing fancy going on.
Any help would be very appreciated!
