Disable session serialization?

Is it possible to disable session serialization?  If so how is it done,
and is it bad idea? Is this documented  anywhere?

Thanks,

bw

Thanks.  An example of  the <Manager .../> element was not included in 
the sample server.xml in Tomcat 5.0.19

FYI (and for the archives) in Tomcat 5 (which I think has slightly 
different parameters than Tomcat 4), the following seems to work 
(although it's hard to test):

        <Manager classname="org.apache.catalina.session.StandardManager"
                 distributable="false"
                 pathname="/dev/null" />

I put it in the <Host ...> element (the Tomcat documentation was a bit 
opaque on this) and that seems to work.

(I have not tested this, but try)
<Manager pathname="/dev/null"/>

Or the example server.xml in tomcat4.1 has this:
           <Manager className="org.apache.catalina.session.PersistentManager"
               debug="0"
               saveOnRestart="true"
               maxActiveSessions="-1"
               minIdleSwap="-1"
               maxIdleSwap="-1"
               maxIdleBackup="-1">
                 <Store className="org.apache.catalina.session.FileStore"/>
           </Manager>

Change saveOnRestart="true" to saveOnRestart="false"

Is there an example of Manager element anywhere on the web?

(Neither the Tomcat documentation nor the sample server.xml that comes 
with Tomcat has an example as far as I can tell)

Thanks
