That's a good idea. It'll probably be after the weekend now. I've
just rebuilt 3.0.x and pushed it to the live server, so I'll leave
that for the weekend and see how it holds out. If it crashes like
before it probably won't be until 9am Monday morning anyway.

Though I could return Session-Timeout:=30 to create higher
load... ;-)
