[rt-users] Re: Session table growing.

Sessions table is used internally by Apache.  I have recently deleted
all sessions entries older than a month, I feel that it is a safe thing
to do - the change had no effect on my instance of RT.
It'd be a good practice to include sessions table cleaning routine into
one of your regular maintenance scripts.
