 Hi,

 I was testing template engines with a memory profiler we have written and
 I have seen an interesting issue with Django template engine. Still not
 sure if this is an issue or intended.

 The database backend I use is django.db.backends.sqlite3. I am using
 following code to retrieve a huge list of objects:

 {{{
 comments = Comment.objects.all().iterator()
 template = loader.get_template('polls/comments.html')
 context = {
         'comments': comments,
     }
 return HttpResponse(template.render(context, request))
 }}}

 And the template code:

 {{{
 {% for comment in comments %}
     a
 {% endfor %}
 }}}

 When I ran the view, I see the
 {{{django.db.models.base.Comment.__init__}}} caches the results. If I
 change the TEMPLATE backend to {{{Jinja2}}} I verified it is not being
 cached.

 Is this somewhat intended behaviour? If so, how can we disable Model
 caching for Django templates?
