Hmmm, do your have the SSL session timeout in Apache set to 600 seconds? It would indicate, that there's a problem with session renegotiation and client certificates. Usually this should work. Check the SSL session timeout to see, whether your 10 minutes could come from the (and choose another value to verify, that the 10 minutes change accordingly). If this is true, I would first update to a recent version of Apache and OpenSSL in order to rule out bugs there. Another possibility could be a browser bug. Does it happen for varous browsers, like MSIE and Firefox?
