Yes, now ssl_session_cache with shared cache can be used on all
versions of Windows. It's not really a big deal though, as
ssl_session_cache with builtin cache was available all the time,
and there is no serious difference as it's not possible to use
multiple worker processes on Windows.

The 1m is expected to store about 4000 sessions, see
http://nginx.org/r/ssl_session_cache. This is enough assuming
less sessions are created during ssl_session_timeout (5m by
default).
