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
I'm used to writing straight CGI applications. No frameworks. If you're talking about persistent connections or possibly some framework that tries to mimic persistence then maybe you could be correct. But again I'd guess in most cases that ID is stored in DB file(s) and looked up on each request, not in memory.
