Well, maybe my system lacks the proper horsepower needed for the above  
to be true, but what I see here is that using the hashtable session  
handler requires about twice the time to switch between month views in  
Kronolith compared to native memcache (in php.ini). Even using Sql as  
session handler is faster. The argument of avoiding changing  
system-wide settings in php.ini is moot anyway if the system is  
dedicated for Horde.
