PHP Session vs vBulletin session table

[vooood]

I was wondering what would be the most efficient thing to use - PHP session or the vBulletin session table?

I'm asking this because I'm working on a game plugin for vBulletin that needs sessions. There are already a lot of DB requests and I was wondering if adding pure PHP sessions support for a few basic things will save me a lot of DB requests - for example character name, description, etc.

The questions is will this help me to achieve better performance or is it the "same" as extending the vBulletin session table?

The whole session table is fetched anyway, so you might as well use it I reckon.

Cool. Thank you for the info! :)
