On a similar note, I've been storing most of my application's data in the request scope. Multiple request.struct.struct kind of thing. It's a huge amount, and gets recreated with each page load from mostly cached queries. I know lots of this data could be stored in the application scope but for some reason I've hesitated all these years. This may seem like a real dumb question, but is one more efficient than the other? On first blush it seems it would be, since the application scope continues to live after the page is done, correct? (I feel stupid just asking this quewstion... I should know the answer.)
Similarly related, a while ago someone sent me a trick for duplicating the session scope to request, using the vars that way (even modifying them) and then copying it back before the page ends. I've never actually converted my code to doing that yet. Probably that would solve some of the errors I've been getting with missing session variables that should be there.
