Hi,
I've some high traffic sites and my ezsession table is growing and growing ...
The main problem: Search engine spiders are "poluting" the table because they are "anonymous users". Each page view creates a new entry in the ezession table. (250 MB at the moment at one site).
So my suggestion: Take two session expiration times instead of one. One for registered users who are logged in (this could be 5-10 days e.g.)One for anomy. users (this could be one day)
Best wishes, Georg. -- http://www.schicksal.com Horoskop website which uses eZ Publish since 2004

By the way, a tip for ez newbies: The session table isn't cleaned by default. So outdated sessions still remain in the ezsession table.
To remove outdated sessions use the update/common/scripts/cleanup.php script
or put following line in one of your cronjobs:
eZSessionGarbageCollector();
