I wasn't able to use cookies for two reasons a) Cookies aren't ment for data storing but for token storing, so they provide EXTREMELY limited space. It's hard to push hundreds of kilobytes into cookies. b) My intention was to use this module with a website with very heavy load - millions of pageviews per day. Storing data in a cookie means that this data is being passed around between the browser and the server with every request made to the server (while loading images, static files, etc.). Every kilobyte of data for one million requests makes about 1 GB of extra traffic. It's not much compared to the overall traffic, but it's stil 1 GB per day. And I would like to store not 1 kB but hundreds of kilobytes data. Without the cookies, data is pulled from the server only when there's actual need, not with every request. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype: Core" group.
