+module ActiveSupport
+  # lazy_load_hooks allows Rails to lazily load a lot of components and thus
+  # making the app boot faster. Because of this feature now there is no need to
+  # require <tt>ActiveRecord::Base</tt> at boot time purely to apply
+  # configuration. Instead a hook is registered that applies configuration once
+  # <tt>ActiveRecord::Base</tt> is loaded. Here <tt>ActiveRecord::Base</tt> is
+  # used as example but this feature can be applied elsewhere too.
+  #
+  # Here is an example where +on_load+ method is called to register a hook.
+  #
+  #   initializer 'active_record.initialize_timezone' do
+  #     ActiveSupport.on_load(:active_record) do
+  #       self.time_zone_aware_attributes = true
+  #       self.default_timezone = :utc
+  #     end
+  #   end
+  #
+  # When the entirety of +ActiveRecord::Base+ has been
+  # evaluated then +run_load_hooks+ is invoked. The very last line of
+  # +ActiveRecord::Base+ is:
+  #
+  #   ActiveSupport.run_load_hooks(:active_record, ActiveRecord::Base)
+  module LazyLoadHooks

+        @loaded     = Hash.new { |h, k| h[k] = [] }
