express-session memory leak #230

Open roccomuso opened 6 years ago

roccomuso commented 6 years ago

The default "memory" storage for sessions suffer a well known memory leak. As pointed out on the express-session documentation. The usage is discouraged in production.

Consider switching to a leak-proof in-memory store: memorystore
