Couldn't you tie into the unload and beforeUnload events, and only
store the data in the cookies then? That would alleviate the overhead of
pushing the data across the wire with each request. You'd still have the
problem of storage space, though. Your best bet in that case would be to
prioritise the data, and only store the high-priority data in cookies.

The thing is like this -
ie5-7 has it's own local storage implementation (which persistJS
doesn't use for some unnknown reason)
ff2-3.4 has yet another proprietary mechanism
saffari4, ff3.5+, ie8+ and chrome 5 have the w3c local storage api
saffari <4 and chrome <5 don't have anything. and I'm pertty sure this
is true to many mobile phones (even webkits). so as a fallback i'm
using cookies, but that can become very heavy traffic, and yet still
not be large enough for some uses (such as autosave). and so i'm
looking for a way to simulate storage for these browsers that can
replace the cookies (i suppose flash isn't viable for many mobiles,
but saffari and chrome should get some support

@arieh: sorry, I guess I didn't look good enough, I thought the list
of supported browsers was so long it supported everything ;) what
browsers/versions do you want to target (pre IE6?!).
I haven't looked into storage really.. what is persistJS doing? For
what I see it doesn't use Flash and cookies, or doesn't it support the
browsers you're after as well?
