After setting UserSessionTimeOutInterval value, automatic logout did not always happen after the specified period for inactivity, it took much longer than the time set. This update adds the UserSessionTimeOutInvalidationInterval parameter which invalidates the session timeout after a specified amount of time has elapsed and the logout has not occurred. The actual timeout value will be between the times set for both parameters.

AFAIK: UserSessionTimeOutInterval is not exactly (or not only) the time-out interval - it is (also) used as the frequency in which the engine checks all of its sessions, and invalidates (time-outs) the "old" idle ones. So the actual session time-out can potentially be up to: UserSessionTimeOutInterval x 2 Example: UserSessionTimeOutInterval = 1 minute. time event ======== ===== 12:00:00 engine is checking for "old" idle sessions. 12:01:00 engine is checking for "old" idle sessions. 12:02:00 engine is checking for "old" idle sessions. 12:03:00 engine is checking for "old" idle sessions. ... 12:30:00 engine is checking for "old" idle sessions. 12:30:01 *** session "aaa" starts *** [session "aaa" performs no requests to the engine (i.e. it is practically idle)] 12:31:00 engine is checking for "old" idle sessions. [session "aaa" is idle for 59 seconds, 59 seconds < 1 minute -> session "aaa" is still considered "active", so it cannot be invalidated] 12:32:00 engine is checking for "old" idle sessions. [session "aaa" is idle for 1 minute + 59 seconds, 1 minute + 59 seconds > 1 minute -> session "aaa" is considered an "old" idle session -> it is being invalidated. so even though the session time-out is set to be 1 minute, session "aaa" remained valid for almost (1 minute x 2 =) 2 minutes. ok, is6.
