Hmm. I'm not sure about this.

I have no figures to back this up but I imagine quite a few people use
Tomcat the way I have used it in the past. I have often used Tomcat to
host some simple services that aren't used very often or where brief
downtime is OK (so a quick restart to pick up a change isn't an issue)
but session persistence is useful.

For sure, persistence across restarts is not the solution for production
systems with high availability requirements.

I guess I'm wondering what are the benefits for doing this. I can see
some downsides but I'm struggling to see the benefit.
