+``PagedVector<Type, PageSize>`` is a random access container that allocates (PageSize) elements
+of type Type when the first element of a page is accessed via the ``operator[]`` or the ``at()``
+method.  This is useful for the case in which the number of elements is known in advance and 
+their actual initialization is expensive and sparse so that it's only done lazily when the element is 
+accessed. Typical cases for this are the ASTReader::TypesLoaded and ASTReader::DeclsLoaded containers.
