Andre Rekhtine’s post a couple of weeks ago
and some activity on one of my sights last night brought this to a head for me. I had a sight last night that SearchPublisher 3.0
was indexing. I am sure they are similar to other search engines in that each
request invokes a new user session. Imagine if you have 15 to 20 sites on a
Witango server, the normal 30 minute session inactivity variable purge, normal
traffic for each site and a few search engines start indexing the sites. User
sessions can exceed the 200 sessions that Andre talked about real quick. Are any of you addressing this and if so how? I was thinking about building a table to keep track
of user sessions that would maintain last access and number of accesses by user
reference. Then having a cron job run every minute to find sessions with only
one access for the last five minutes. The cron job would then purge the inactive
sessions. I am not even sure I can do this as I can’t find a tag to purge
other sessions users vars! I keep my user vars low – 4 or 5 per session
and I also realize that I could reduce the VARIABLETIMEOUT system setting, but
there are a lot of valid user sessions that I prefer not to keep requiring a
new session initialization. Comments please. Thanks Steve Fogelson Internet Commerce Solutions ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf |
