I'm confused; what exactly is in the cache for logged in users?
The cache under discussion is the parser cache. This stores the HTML for a given wikitext string. There are other caches as well, like the Squid cache and the sidebar cache and so on.
But I'm not familiar with the Wikipedia cacheing at all in detail; I've run a lot of Mediawiki servers but never bothered to cache anything (none of them had enough hits to make it worthwhile trying).
The parser cache is on by default, I'm fairly sure.
