Indicates whether document memory caching support has been started.
public bool IsStarted {get;}
true if document memory caching support has been started; otherwise, false.
The value of IsStarted is false by default and will be set to true after a successful call to Start.
Calling Stop will set the value of IsStarted back to false.
Refer to DocumentMemoryCache for more information.
