Re: Overwhelming a Web Application Server

Bradley V. Stone skrev:
Sort of lost me here. Cookies shouldn't put any memory or stress on the
server. Cookies are stored on the client side. And as far as how to
"recognize" the cookie from the client, that's usually stored in a db (ie
a shopping cart file, etc), not in memory. If so, I would call it a
design flaw.

The requests are still stateless.

Your message lost formatting. I believe the above is what you wrote.

The cookie acts as a session _ID_. The actual session data structure identified by the session id is located inside the webserver and looked up when processing the request.

At least in the frameworks I am familiar with :D
