but wont it still try to run sometimes since that setting determines whether
or not the gc will run *every* time ?  i would imagine if it was for *any*
time, setting session.gc_probability = 0 would effectively disable the stock
gc.

Then do it yourself in a script called by cron.


it would be nice if you could latch into the one they provide out of the box
and just invoke it via cron..
