Not true.  When a session times out, only that particular session object
and anything it is the sole referrer of is a candidate for garbage
collection.  Webapps are not removed unless they are undeployed.

Memory is cheap, annoyed users aren't; you might want to rethink your
priorities.  Of course, you should insure your webapps aren't resource
hogs, be that memory or any other finite entity.
