I don't really know.  But I think that [catalina-home]\work\ may contain 
more things than just session storage (compiled classes maybe), so you 
may not really be able to get rid of it as such.

If you want to monitor your Tomcat's memory usage more finely, the 
"jconsole" program (part of the Java JDK) provides a nice graphical way 
to examine the memory usage in real-time.
