What kind of traffic are you looking at? In my environment, I've got some
pretty heavy-loaded client vars holding WDDX data, but its an intranet where
there might be maybe 5-20 simultaneous users in a given app.
My experience, oddly enough, was that when I tested the speed of native
session variables versus db-stored client vars, the client vars were just a
bit faster! Strange but true. Add to that the overhead of WDDXing, and it
still didn't make a difference to the end-user experience.
