Bump in case anyone is interested now that the list has died down a bit.
I'm a little biased :) but I am still interested.
From a practical angle, Paul's patch makes session-based applications
usable with databases that have more expensive writes (SQLite being a
key example). Without this feature, we saw the server's performance
crater when a moderate number (100's) of requests were made in a short
period of time.
From a technical angle, it doesn't make sense to me that every request
results in a write to the database when using mod_session_dbd. As it
stands now, I don't feel like mod_session is production-ready when
combined with a SQLite backend.
From an emotional angle, Paul has been patiently pinging the list with
no response for two months now. Surely he deserves some reply, even if
it's just an explanation of why there is no interest in the feature? It
feels like mod_session and friends need some love.
