max value for sessionState mode="InProc" timeout?

Is there a maximum recommended value for setting the timeout value in
web.config section <sessionState
mode="InProc"
timeout="20"
/>

What are the possible repercussions of setting this value to high?

I have a user base whose job tasks require them at times to open a asp.net
page and ignore it for extended periods of time. The default value of 20 is
causing problems so I need to increase it but have no known max value so I
would like to set it so that timing out becomes a very remote possibility.
One post here has suggested 24 hours (timeout="1440" ). But I do not wish to
create further issues with too high a value.

Thanks

We love the ASP.NET "Session" concept and make good use of it. But, getting close to deployment we find we lose sessions far too often, probably due to application restarts, etc. We hope to eliminate these restarts, but we're not sure that can be achieved. (We are exploring who/what might be touching web.config or assemblies or other files in our application, but have found nothing so far.) We have some serious rewriting to do if all...

I am using session mode as "InProc"(entered in web.config). I have deployed my ASP.NET appln. on a server which uses Load Balancer. i.e I have two servers.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
