Comment (by csar):

 Replying to [comment:4 ncohen]:
 > (this code should probably be stored in `from
 sage.combinat.posets.linear_extensions`. Besides, your code may be faster
 for small cases but can also require an exponential memory, which can be a
 problem too).

 I've moved the code to `sage.categories.finite_poset`, which I realise is
 not what you've said, and added a note in the docstring saying one may
 prefer to count linear extensions of `P` by using
 `P.linear_extensions().cardinality()`, which uses the iterator belonging
 to `LinearExtensionsOfPoset` and avoids all the cacheing.
