There's review request pending[1] which vastly simplifies the whole CSRF 
protection, limiting the DB Queries to only _one_ for a whole user session.

Other than that the CSRF protection consists of (for each request) some 
class files to be loaded, _one_ object to be created and a couple of 
method calls for the generation of the tokens (which will then be only 
hashing of a few strings).

I'm open for suggestions how this could be further optimized.

Kind regards,
Helmut
