I would say it's not scaleable to store a dataset in session.

Why do you need to do that?

Maybe for a local company inner site but other than that no it will eat memory and if it's very big your site may go down.

Why not store it in ViewState?

Storing valuable data in session keys is not a good idead also because sessionId is stored in browser cookie as a normal text. So everyone could easily steal your session and read it`s data.
