Hi,

in my php.ini file on a WinNT machine with IIS 4 server I read:

session.gc_probability    = 1       ; percentual probability that the
                                    ; 'garbage collection' process is
started
                                    ; on every session initialization
session.gc_maxlifetime    = 1440    ; after this number of seconds, stored
                                    ; data will be seen as 'garbage' and
                                    ; cleaned up by the gc process

Can someone tell me about the gc process and garbage collection?

Best Regards
Bernhard
