Neither do I, but I haven't really seen the code you're using, so it's
not really possible to deduce what's happening.

Are you using Archetypes?  I found that it writes to the session on
every traversal of one of its objects.  Something is using sessions to
cause this, although it's hard to know what.

Probably no easy solution without trying to figure out what the problem
is first.

Find whatever is using sessioning and disable it or work around it is
the best answer I can give at the moment.
