    • Caching (memcache.inc)
    • Locking (memcache-lock.inc)
    • Sessions (memcache-session.inc) (D6 only)

Documentation

The most complete and up to date documentation is included with the module, in the README.txt file. There is also user-contributed documentation available but this tends to be more out of date.
