I would like to have my session be the database stored instead of

However, there's very little to no reason why you would change to the
ActiveRecordStore. The session should not even contain sensitive data
to start off with, that's not what it's made for. It's also not meant
to be used as a garbage can for heaps of data. If that's the reason
why you want to switch to the ActiveRecordStore, then you should stop
for a second and rethink what you are putting in the session and put
it somewhere else.
Also, keep in mind that when you switch to the ActiveRecordStore:
- You will need to clean the expired sessions on regular intervals
yourself
- You will be hitting the database a lot more often on every request,
a waste of server resources in my opinion
