Tomcat restart not killing session

I was under the impression that restarting webserver would kill all user
sessions. But with my tomcat install, restarting Tomcat does not kill user
sessions. I am still able to continue with the initially started sessions.
Is this a typical tomcat behaviour or a bug?

I have Tomcat 5.5 running on Windows Vista.

Can anyone please help?

Thanks,
Sharda
