Note Submitter: Josh ---- I had users of my site occsaionally complaining that they were being logged out after short times of inactivity (usually when they were creating content to send to the site). I had a high cookie timout so I couldn't understand why this was happening, and I never managed to replicate the behaviour myself. I've just come accross the "gc_maxlifetime" property. This seems to be the culprit; it's set to only 24 minutes! The worst part is that it combines with the "gc_probability" property to produce unpredictable results. I'm mysified as to why the time limit is so low by default, but hopefully increasing it will fix up my errors.
