I believe that PHP >= 4.0 uses the microsecond time as the sessionID, and this is probably a good idea. Many who have made their own session-handling devices (as PHP's is buggy) have used microtime (or a regex derivative) as the session ID, as it is (nearly) guaranteed to be unique for every session.
