Is it possible that the variability you're seeing is caused by your Ajax requests not setting the web2py session cookie? http://webhole.net/2010/07/10/jquery-cookies-example/ (I don't really know what I'm talking about here, so maybe this is handled elsewhere in the web2py Ajax logic. But the main reason that web2py generates a new session id is that the request doesn't have a session cookie.)
