Cannot allocate shared memory for SSL session cache

Description

Starting a new SSL/TLS session is a relatively costly operation.

Therefore it is possible to share a session for several connections.

Active sessions are stored in session cache shared by all processes of the proxy. If the shared memory for the cache cannot be allocated, the proxy cannot be started.
