Krishna, i think you're confused about how the session factory, session and 2nd level cache work together.
the session factory is the source of everything in NH. It's created from the configuration. the session factory should be a singleton within the application and should be created when the application starts and disposed when he application ends. sessions are cheap and should be created whenever a new "conversation"/ unit of work/business context is required. the common scenarios are: web > http request message bus > thread rich client > form 2nd level cache allows you to store entities between sessions to bypass the database call. the cache is stored in the session factory itself and exists as long as the session factory is around. there is no reason to cache the session factory. if you want to decrease the time required to build the session factory you can serialize the configuration, but other than that you don't "save" the session factory.
