RE: Session in Tomcat

	About the session numbers:  it uses SecureRandom to generate the
numbers.  More information can be found in Tomcat's source code for
org.apache.tomcat.session.StandardManager, the method getNewSession seems to
be particularly relevant.

	About storage of JSessionID: the clients software is free to store
it wherever it wants.  Most web browsers persist this to the disk as soon as
they receive the cookie, but some delay and only persist when they want to.
