I had the same issue not so long ago, the solution we ended up going with was Pound for the load balancer and stock Apache webservers. Pound supports sticky sessions which you can configure the timeout for, and also can proxy https->http. We also wrote our own session handlers to allow session vars to be saved to a database. This configuration has been working for us over a year now. If you need any more info, let me know.
