I am trying to determine a good length for SSL Session timeouts. It appears 
the default cache length is 5 minutues, but if the session is reused within 
those five minutes, its timeout is renewed to five minutes, and so on.

What I can't find is whether there is a global maximum number of 
times/length of time you can use a given SSL session, and/or where to set 
that. It might be browser-specific, I don't know.

Is it possible to set the maximum length that a SSL session can live? say 
one hour, with expiry in the default 5 minutes if no reuse?
