Some coworkers had concern that Java applications had difficulties
scaling due to session information kept within memory.  This was spurned
on by an article from when Friendster rewrote their site from Java to
PHP. (http://www.oreillynet.com/onlamp/blog/2004/07/php_scales.html)

The thought was if Tomcat could store session information to disk, then
we could configure some of our Tomcat servers to work with one of our
large SANs rather than replicating the session.  It could even then be
worked into session replication to reduce the amount of traffic needed
to replicate session information.
