Hi, mod_socache_memcache module is useful for sharing SSL sessions and/or even for things like mod_cache for sharing a single large memory based cache between multiple serving nodes. Note, as far as I can determine memcache isn't required to be installed to compile, and generally you'd use a remote memcached install in all likilyhood, so not depending on memcached for building. If this is in error I'll happily correct.
