Sriram, I suggest we stick with /tmp for storing sessions. This has huge performance implications when running lots of users. /tmp on Solaris is very fast. We suffered first hand from performance problems while running a benchmark when we had sessions saved in /var/tmp. Moving this to /tmp solved the problem.
