However, when hitting our system with say 10,000 API requests, we get
10,000 session objects in the database. Which seems like a big waste
of resources.
Is there a way to prevent this?
Basically we want API requests to start with an empty in-memory-only
session hash which is dropped after the request finishes. Somewhat
related, we also don't want to return an HTTP Header Set-Cookie:
_session_id=...etc.
Seems to me like you have no need for sessions at all, since you don't
want the session cookie set.
In your API controller, just put "session :disabled => true" on top.
If you do need sessions, I would suggest just skipping the active
record store sessions completely and either moving on to the
cookiebased store or a memcache store (which will automatically drop
sessions once it hits the memory treshold iirc).
