I don´t think this will have any performance implications or other issues if you set it 8 hours. What is does is configures the number of minutes without any requests being made before the Umbraco user will be required to re-login. Any backoffice request will reset the clock. Default setting is 20 minutes.
Here is the documentation for webconfig settings in Umbraco 7
I belive it's more to do with security incase you have dashboards which contain sensitive data. Alternatively in the umbracosettings.config you can set keepUserLoggedIn to true.
umbracoTimeOutInMinutes
By default its set to 30 minutes.
Is there any performance implications or other issues if I set it 8 hours?
Thanks
Hi Tom,

<add key="umbracoTimeOutInMinutes" value="20" />
So is just a setting for how often you need to re-login to the backoffce if you have a periode of time where you don´t work in the backoffice.
Hope this helps,
