[Catalyst] weird problem with session_expires

[Felix Antonius Wilhelm Ostmann]

Hmmm ... i think a session would never expire when you do every 10 
seconds a request ... because he update the session every time. when the 
time between two requests is greater then session_expire, then the 
session will be deleted.
