Why not suspend/hibernate your machine to the swap partition (on your USB disk)? I've used this approach for some months now and haven't bothered about persistent "sessions" ever since. It also helps me save power consumption at night, when I'm not using the computer. http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Suspend_to_Disk
