I am using the sessions to keep track of who is logged on, for how long and what they have done. Obviously there are other non servlet ways to do this but as tomcat gives the opportunity to track sessions, I thought I'd use it. Session persistence highlights a 'hole' in the sessionListener interface.
BTW: I'm surprised you think sessions should not be persisted. I think it's cool!

Which is why I still suggested a solution I've used in the past ;) Even though I disagree with the approach of persisting someone else's proprietary internal objects, I assume that whoever asked the question has a reasonable and well-thought out cause, so I try to help. I'm still unclear as to why one would want to save the session object itself, as opposed to only the parts of interest from it. Does it have to do with load-balancing, wanting to somehow augment / superimpose on the built-in mechanism?
