Description

Although it's convenient, storing the cookie in the config file is really a big hassle when the configuration is stored using the SingleFileLdifPartition : we will flush this big file on disk for every modification the server receives...

IMO, it's ok if the config is based on the LdifPartition, but otherwise, it's simply overkilling.

Another solution would be to store the cookies on disk as separate files.
