That reminds me - is there any reason RT would get upset if the sessions
table was suddenly empty after a restart?

I'm wondering if it should be an UNLOGGED table on PostgreSQL 9.1 and
above, so it doesn't incur write-ahead logging overhead. If it doesn't
need to be crash-safe and it's OK to just have it truncated after a
crash recovery restart, that'd be ideal.

Thoughts?
