I think that I would recommend you to change web hosts.
I currently am using a web host, which for about $10 more per month and a
small setup fee I get to have full access to my own JVM. This way I can
start it up and shut it down when I choose. Plus I get to setup my own
class paths which is great. My last web host had a shared system with their
own configs. I couldn't even use my own choice for a database driver. Not
worth the time and headaches it took to get it all working. Not to mention
it was a huge security risk because their JVM was set up wrong allowing one
servlet access to everyone else's. Aghgh!
Much happier now.

Hi !
I have not used JSERV till now, but JRUN gives such a facility. It has
an option to use a jrun servlet engine as session persistant engine. It
stores sessions in a flat file at the time of shutting down and recovers
them on restart.
