If you switch on server-side file caching$wgUseFileCache =true;, then you can use this variable to specify where the cached pages will be saved on your server filesystem.
It's an absolute path, so you could specify somewhere under/tmp for example:
$wgFileCacheDirectory="/tmp/yourcache";
...but you can specify this absolute path in relation to other directory path variables, e.g.:
$wgFileCacheDirectory="{$wgUploadDirectory}/cache";
This specifies a "cache" directory under the image uploads directory (normally called "images"). This is the default setting in fact.
