That was a pretty vague and not very helpful answer John.

Stephen, what all are you storing in session variables?  Could you 
describe your application a little more?  I've always tried to make sure 
that I'm using session variables as little as possible anymore.  I've 
moved majority of my session variables into client variables (storage in 
db).  None the less, there's still a variable management issue that you 
have to get your fingers wrapped around.  Perhaps you're storing too much 
information into the session scope if you're pondering that there has to 
be a better way.

So.. my advice to you is to do a <cfdump var="#session#"> (proper locks 
around of course) and take a good hard look at what really should / 
shouldn't be there.
