>
> the leader tracks session expirations by calculating when a session will 
> timeout and then periodically checking to see what needs to be timed out 
> based on the current time. this works great as long as the leaders clock 
> progresses at a steady pace. the problem comes when there are big (session 
> size) changes in clock, by ntp for example. if time gets adjusted forward, 
> all the sessions could timeout immediately. if time goes backward sessions 
> that should timeout may take a lot longer to actually expire.
> this is really just a leader issue. the easiest way to deal with this is to 
> have the leader relinquish leadership if it detects a big jump forward in 
> time. when a new leader gets elected, it will recalculate timeouts of active 
> sessions.
