The [[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#when-
querysets-are-evaluated|docs for QuerySet]] contain a reference to partial
evaluation of queryset and a warning that explicitly calling `list(qs)`
requires more memory than just iterating over a queryset.
As far as I can see, anytime a QuerySet is evaluated, all results are
pulled from the database at once, stored in `_result_cache` and most list-
like operations are simply proxied to this cache. This means that there is
no partial evaluation going on anymore, and `list(qs)` simply creates a
shallow copy of `qs._result_cache`.
