Hi




I have one idea. Store session data in memory instead file. It's fast 
when file. Yes I know when script is finish all data is delete. But 
this can be same like file session. But in memory.

There already are various ways to do this:
-enable mm support for session storage (--with-mm)
-store your session files on a ramdisk
-use ext/shmop

You can do this your self using shared memory segments and custom
session handling functions.  There are lts of good reasons to leave them
in files, one is that you can have an NFS volume that a group of servers
can share letting you have the luxury of sessions behind a loadbalancer.
