Cookie Based Sessions in Current Rails
Seems Cookie Based Sessions are the New Default in Edge Rails: ...Cookie-based sessions are just faster to retrieve and process than hitting the file-system on every request. Plus, I would imagine they scale considerably better as they’re persisted on the client side and have no server-side persistence requirements...
So I made a cookie-based sessions patch agains current Rails (actionpack-1.13.2). Usage (from inside your project):
rake rails:freeze:gems cd vendor wget http://zhware.net/code/ruby/ror/session_store-1.13.2.patch patch -p0 < session_store-1.13.2.patch
