mmm, a valid point. thank you.
looking further into the matter; the only real advantage would be to
have instances of php on multiple machines accessing the same session
data on, for example, a central memcache server. For very large
applications spread across multiple machines, that would be a more
practical and scalable solution then using files; that is, if the same
session data need to be accessed from different machines.
thanks again,
frase
