Dynamic Session Timeouts – Rewarding site progress with a longer session

• PaulHoule 13y ago
  People still use in-language session mechanisms that run out of memory? Let me clue you into something. Professionals don't. If you're selling something, you don't EVER want to dump a shopping cart on the floor. It seems natural to you, from your self-centered perspective, that it's OK for a session to time out after a week, but from a user's perspective they can leave Microsoft Word running for a week and it still works.

    They sure do, that's primarily who this method is geared towards. If you left every session open for a week, you'd surely see a huge chunk of memory devoted to it.
