Daily is fine.  The cron only looks at session that are old.

None if the session is old.

The script we normally run is the following.

https://github.com/okfn/ckan-packaging/blob/master/etc/cron.daily/remove_old_sessions

It is set to run daily but remove sessions that are older than 10 days old.

I am pretty sure ec are using memcached so this should not be an
issue.  Would it be possible to have a copy of the config file other
wise its hard to tell what is going on.
