Actually just the request, the reason for this, is a previous bug.

While we were testing, the simple f5(refresh) test, we seem to be getting
database error, after 150 tickets. The blob for the registered service int
TGT, was to big to be saved to the database. This again gave some errors
with single log out...
So we switched the key from ticket to service( map<ticket,service> to
map<service,ticket>,) we always keep our newsted ticket and deleted the old
one. This solved our problem, and none of the system had any problems with
this new solution.

Kind regards,

Danny
