RE: [PHP] Session filesize limit

Hi Jay, Thanks for your quick reply. I am storing the session file on the server. Once user logs into the system, i am storing username and his/her roles (status) in the session files and on each page request i am retrieving the information from the session files. Now i need to add some more functionality in the system and for that i need to add some more information in the session files. So i was just worrying about the size of these files. Anyway let me know if i am wrong or if you have any suggestions. Thanks again.
