No worries I'm trying to understand the JackRabbit design by just walking my way through the code. There appears to be a lot of it ;)
I assume that by "components that are tied to a session" you mean for instance the ItemManager. Am I right in saying that when you close the session the ItemManager (and any cache it contains will be closed as well ?) Thanks for your help with this Dominique, I'm sure there a lot of people on the mailing list who will find the knowledge of the design details to be a great benefit.

Sorry for not being clear enough. Jackrabbit's javax.jcr.Session implementation creates some helper objects that help maintain and cache the states of items. Losing the information inside those helper objects was what I was referring to when talking about "components that are tied to a session".
