 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 When a session opens, PHP will call the ``gc`` handler randomly according to the
-probability set by ``session.gc_probability`` / ``session.gc_divisor``. For
-example if these were set to ``5/100`` respectively, it would mean a probability
-of 5%. Similarly, ``3/4`` would mean a 3 in 4 chance of being called, i.e. 75%.

-If the garbage collection handler is invoked, PHP will pass the value stored in
-the ``php.ini`` directive ``session.gc_maxlifetime``. The meaning in this context is
-that any stored session that was saved more than ``gc_maxlifetime`` ago should be
-deleted. This allows one to expire records based on idle time.
