How do I get rid of expired sessions in hunchentoot without deleting valid sessions ("reset-sessions" invalidates and destroys all sessions)?
When looking at the sessions returned by "do-sessions", it seems that expired sessions are only removed once a user tries to reuse the expired session.
Nope. See below.
But what if the user never revisits the site, will his/her expired session remain in the session list? (Or remain at least until the next call to "reset-sessions", which will also delete active sessions). How do I identify expired sessions when traversing the sessions with "do-session", or do I have to manually keep track of this?
Look at *SESSION-GC-FREQUENCY* and SESSION-GC. Does that help? I had plans to export them but somehow haven't done that yet. Do others think this would make sense, at least for the first symbol?
