Hi Chris, Thanks Chris for reply.
Perhaps you should think about using a leaner session, and then sessions living for longer than necessary won't be such a big problem What do you mean by leaner session ? Storing less objects in session or changing default timeout from 30 mins to something of less value ? I think got probable answer to my issue, I had overlooked the JSP part, I have JSP's and by default JSP creates session, and this was reason as why I was seeing thousands of session in my app. Is their a way to kill the session after certain period of inactive time where user is not doing anything on the site or I need to adjust my timeout value ?
