20  * The idea of the RefreshableCachedObject is that, rather than
21  * removing items from the cache when they become stale, we'll tell them to
22  * refresh themselves instead. That way they'll always be in the
23  * cache, and the code to refresh them will be run by the background
24  * thread rather than by a user request thread. You can also set a TTL (Time
25  * To Live) for the object. This way, if the object hasn't been touched
26  * for the TTL period, then it will be removed from the cache.
27  *
28  * This extends CachedObject and provides a method for refreshing the
29  * cached object, and resetting its expire time.
