Apache Reference: mod_ssl, SSLSessionCache
Type of the Global/Interprocess SSL Session Cache
Syntax: SSLSessionCache A
Example: SSLSessionCache dbm:logs/ssl_cache
Since: Apache 1.3
This directive configures the storage type of the global/interprocess SSL
session cache. This cache speeds up parallel
request processing by avoiding unnecessary session handshakes on
subsequent or even parallel requests. Three storage
types are supported: ``none'' disables the session cache
(not recommended); ``dbm:filepath'' uses a UNIX
NDBM file on disk (under filepath) as the cache storage (the
portable cache variant); and ``shm:filepath[(bytes)]''
uses a high-performance hash table inside a shared memory segment as
the cache storage (the shared memory segment is established via
filepath and has a maximum size of bytes).
