Memcached*
Our $_SESSION simply lives in memcached. So we could do $fake_session = $wgMemc->get( wfMemcKey( 'session', $session_id ) ) ; $fake_session["upload_ok"] = true; $wgMemc->set( wfMemcKey( 'session', $session_id ), $fake_session, 3600 ) ;
This means that if a memcached server goes down, the information will be lost. The database is the correct place to put this. (Also the correct place to put sessions, for that matter . . .)
