sessions folder under application

[Vlad]

I was checking memory usage and noticed that the sessions folder (under one specific application) takes over 1G of disk space. Can I just delete everything in there? Trying to clean up the space to optimize disk usage -

[Jim S]

I believe that you can.

However, this will invalidate all active sessions and all active users will have to log in again.

Are there date stamps you can use to delete old session files but keep current ones?

Invalidating existing sessions is not a problem; they can login again. As long as it doesn't break things... 

Thank you, Jim!

Hey, Stefan, hope you're keeping well!

(and I've often appreciated that script, too)
