I don't think that's too much, but I would look at using a sessionFacade if the application doesn't do that already. As for how it affects performance, unless you drop so much data in memory that you blow the heap out, putting things in the session scope should improve performance. There are all kinds of caveats around that statement, but in general caching data in the session scope is a good thing.
