In Tapestry, individual page and component fields, marked with the @Perist or @SessionState annotations, will be stored in the the HttpSession. Tapestry generates a unique session attribute key that identifies the name of the page, nested component id, and field name.
If any request, Ajax or otherwise, is received after the session has been invalidated, Tapestry will simply proceed using default (typically, null) values for such fields. In some cases, the page may wish to inject the Request so as to query whether the session is invalidated ... though it may be easier to see if the specific field is null when it is not expected to be. Lance's note about a thread local map is actually a more recent optimization; once you have the basic infrastructure to intercept field access so as to store and retrieve data from the HttpSession, you can do the same trick to separate instances from their state.
