Is there any option to destroy a session if user does not perform any action in 10 minutes?

  1. Try setting the session timeout to 10 minutes.

    ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime',10);

  2. session_start();

    // 10 mins in seconds
    $inactive = 600;

    $session_life = time() - $_session['timeout'];

    if($session_life > $inactive)
    { session_destroy(); header("Location: logoutpage.php"); }

    S_session['timeout']=time();


    The code above was taken from this particular page.

  3. compare timestamps between two requests, one from the current request, one stored in the session.

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
