The automated setting for Memcached using the “Session Storage Mechanism” drop-down menu sets the “php_value[session.save_handler]” setting to “memcache” which is obsolete & in error. This should be applying “memcached” (with the d) else it causes the session handler to fail with an error.
If someone applies fixes to that template/page, I will suggest adding some additional PHP admin memcached settings for it such as sess_lock_retries, sess_lock_wait_min, sess_lock_wait_max and sess_locking ( ie. php_admin_value[memcached.sess_lock_retries] ) under a memcached heading if that package is detected.
