        start/end are integers, range is then
        "person <start>" - "person <end>".

        The cache option we set up is called "name_range", indicating
        a range of names for the Person class.

        The `Person.addresses` collections are also cached.  Its basically
        another level of tuning here, as that particular cache option
        can be transparently replaced with joinedload(Person.addresses).
        The effect is that each Person and their Address collection
        is cached either together or separately, affecting the kind of
        SQL that emits for unloaded Person objects as well as the distribution
        of data within the cache.
