 Let {{{FM}}} be a combinatorial free module currently creating elements
 using the basis is very slow because the family is recreated each time:
 {{{
 sage: FM = CombinatorialFreeModule(QQ, ZZ)
 sage: %timeit [FM.basis()[i] for i in range(100)]
 5 loops, best of 3: 44.4 ms per loop
 }}}
 Adding a cache to {{{basis}}} gives a large speedup
 {{{
 sage: FM = CombinatorialFreeModule(QQ, ZZ)
 sage: %timeit [FM.basis()[i] for i in range(100)]
 125 loops, best of 3: 3.45 ms per loop
 }}}
 The speedup will be even larger with Simon King optimization on
 cache_methods.
