I plan to use sessions as part of my authentication system. It depends on what session storage method you use. Currently session module supports file-based storage, shared memory based storage, and also a way for you to register your custom callbacks and provide the storage yourself. As far as file-base storage method (the default) is concerned, it should be fairly fast. There is not quantifiable way to say how fast it is but if you want to run some tests and post the results, I think it would be interesting. -Andrei Some people try to achieve immortality through their work, others through their children.
