Just concatenate to a binary file, with a small and efficient format. When
over a certain
size, switch to a new file, copy those sessions still alive from the old file
first, then
delete the old file. This should be fairly quick.

We also discussed on IRC, I think a compressing heap saver would be very cool,
but perhaps
something for the next SoC. :-)
