+  # Statement cache is used to cache a single statement in order to avoid creating the AST again.
+  # Initializing the cache is done by passing the statement in the initialization block:
+  #
+  #   cache = ActiveRecord::StatementCache.new do
+  #     Book.where(name: "my book").limit(100)
+  #   end
+  #
+  # The cached statement is executed by using the +execute+ method:
+  #
+  #   cache.execute
+  #
+  # The relation returned by the block is cached, and for each +execute+ call the cached relation gets duped.
+  # Database is queried when +to_a+ is called on the relation.
