The thought here(base64 encode) was to store the data on the client. This would also be a large effort requiring all POST requests, making sure you always send the data in both directions, extra network etc.
Bottom line, storing state for a particular client is what the session is there for. Anything else will most likely cost more in development effort than upgrading hardware.

That would make binary data _bigger_, not smaller, unless you then zipped it, which seems... silly.
