When some users want to improve performance, they get the recommandation to
switch the syspref "sessionstorage" to 'tmp', which store the session info in
the /tmp directory instead of the database.

Depending on the frequency of the cleaning process (or lack thereof), this can
be heavy pollution into the /tmp directory, making it unusable.  "rm cgi*"
would not even work since cgi* extends to over 8000 items...

A simple fix is to modify the target directory in C4/Auth.pm to /tmp/cgisess.
