+router
+------
+
+We use a router class for mapping URLs to code. This section controls
+how that router works.
+
+cache: whether to cache the router in memcache (or another caching
+ mechanism). Defaults to true, but may be set to false for
+ developers (who might be actively adding pages, so won't want the
+ router cached) or others who see strange behavior. You're unlikely
+ to need this unless you're a developer.
