If I grok what you are saying about #3, you want a private session per
client that doesn't interfere with other clients, and has the same
"throw it away" at the end of the call transient behavior. Is this
correct?
Assume for the moment that one didn't need a session "cookie", similar
to what http servlets use for session models. In this case, what's the
use of pooling session bean instances? The actual amount of memory
consumed by the reentrant session beans is trivial, as all the real data
is in the private "session" area.
