--------------------------------------------------------------
Is it possible to share the same ksession between two different nodes via something like this:

| 
 | 
 | StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = JPAKnowledgeService.loadStatefulKnowledgeSession(1, kbase, null, env); |
| 
 | 
 | StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession2 = JPAKnowledgeService.loadStatefulKnowledgeSession(1, kbase, null, env); |

?

The reason I am thinking about this is scaling out the processing of workflow instances (10k+ workflow instances / day in our scenario).

If we can load the process instances and process them in multiple nodes then I can shard the sessions across databases and create a farm of processing nodes that are assigned to these shards. Does that make sense? New to jBPM so would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks
