The cache provides an optional way to speed up parallel request processing.
SSLSessionCacheTimeout Specifies the number of seconds before a SSL session
in the session cache expires.
Category Value
Valid Values
■ none : disables the global/interprocess session cache.
Produces no impact on functionality, but makes a major
difference in performance.
■ shmht:/path/to/datafile[bytes] : Uses a
high-performance hash table (bytes specifies approximate
size) inside a shared memory segment in RAM, which is
established by the /path/to/datafile. This hash table
synchronizes the local SSL memory caches of the server
processes.
■ shmcb:/path/to/datafile[bytes] : Uses a
high-performance Shared Memory Cyclic Buffer (SHMCB)
session cache to synchronize the local SSL memory caches
of the server processes. The performance of shmcb is more
uniform in all environments when compared to shmht.
