Questions about Pound's sessions

Dear list,

I have a few questions about Pound's sessions:

1. Do I understand it correctly that Pound will redirect
all requests for the same session to the same backend server ?

2. What happens if that chosen server dies ? Does the client
get redirected to another server (thus breaking the session)
or it will have no more requests serviced until the server
comes back up ?

3. What happens when the .cfg specified period expires for the session ?
Would it be a correct guess that Pound selects another server
at random and makes it a session choice for the next session period ?

Sincerely,
Dmitry Dvoinikov

No server - no valid session. The client gets redirected.

Yes. Note that a session expires after the specified period without activity, 
not total session time.[...]
