I think we need to add to the mod_ssl docs, that if you want an ssl session cache (and yes, you want one although most modern clients support reusing the session without caching session data on the server side - it's a TLS extension OpenSSL/mod_ssl supports), you need to activate mod_socache_xxx where xxx depends on the SSLSessionCache you configure (maybe we need a table or similar). There is a short remark on the socache page, that it is used by other modules, but a user would expect a remark in the pages of the other mdules, that you need to activate the correct socache module.
