Matthew, what does that mean? Can we (SSL folks) review the changes, whatever they were?
(In reply to comment #4) > Matthew, what does that mean? > Can we (SSL folks) review the changes, whatever they were? I don't know if this really applies - the load balancer was using "ssl session id" which requires CPU/memory resources on the load balancer. The number of unique visitors was causing a an SSL session leak and at that point was refusing new SSL sessions (or rather, wouldn't negotiate new ones). I changed the session state to "cookie insert" - the load balancer sets a cookie that it later uses to figure out your session. This puts the load on to the client browser instead of the load balancer (and when I say load I mean "load" since it's just a cookie). - mz
