David, It is difficult for me to tell you what is the average session size for a JSF application. I am by no means a JSF expert. The folks on this forum will have better insight into typical session sizes for a JSF application. Most of the time it varies according to your application.
There is some tuning you can do, like reducing the # of logical views etc that will reduce the amount cached my myFaces in the session. I recommend tuning and if that does not help some rearchitecting to reduce your session footprint I will also point you to http://wasdynacache.blogspot.com/2011/08/websphere-session-persistence-best.html --Thanks, Rohit Kelapure, Apache Open WebBeans Committer On Tue, Sep 27, 2011 at 11:54 AM, Boyd, David (Corporate) < [email protected]> wrote: > Robit, > > Going down this road it appears that we will be using a database to > store the session information.
