Folks;

not sure whether this is too much a tomcat-related question, but at
least it relates to Java based web applications so hope someone around
here might have an idea on that: While building a Servlet/JSP based
intranet application, quite late I realized that somehow just adding
new objects / data to the HTTP session, say, is something so easy one
makes excessive use once getting acquainted to it. However, thinking
about these information being stored somewhere on the server, the idea
of performance impacts due to sessions way too large is the next thing
to think of.

So, to ask: Are there any reasonable "maximum sizes" for HTTP sessions
in general and/or objects attached to a session? What is the maximum
session size you would accept before considering rewriting large parts
of your application to reduce session size, i.e. by introducing a
smarter architecture? Is there any actual use in making _general_
statements here, or is this more likely to be application-dependent and
a matter of having server hardware built to meet the needs of the
application?

What do you think?

Thanks in advance and bye,
Kristian
