  32   * Performance helper class.

  34   * This tool keeps a local cache of certain items, which means that subsequent
  35   * calls to get the resource will not query the database. You will want to use
  36   * this when many resources could be shared and need to be queried in a loop.
  37   *
  38   * Note that some of these improvements can only be achieved by knowing the
  39   * logic deeper in other modules. For instance we know that a competency's context
  40   * is the one of its framework. This tool must be kept in sync with those APIs.
