Is MediaWiki Memcached active?

Hey people

I have a hunch that MediaWiki is not using Memcached at all and I am hoping to be wrong on the matter.

I looked at the documentation [0] CurrentSettings.php, the lines '$wgMainCacheType    = CACHE_MEMCACHED;' are commented and I would like to confirm it is not forgotten as is or it has a reason.

Ryan, can you help me tell me if we have a problem with our current MediaWiki setup and memcached?

PS: I am about to install on monitor a phpMemcachedAdmin instance under a HTTP password protected folder and probably dig to add memcached to log into logStash too.
