+/// A vector that allocates memory in pages.
+///
+/// Order is kept, but memory is allocated only when one element of the page is
+/// accessed. This introduces a level of indirection, but it is useful when you
+/// have a sparsely initialised vector where the full size is allocated upfront.
+///
+/// As a side effect the elements are initialised later than in a normal vector.
+/// On the first access to one of the elements of a given page all, the elements
+/// of the page are initialised. This also means that the elements of the page
+/// are initialised beyond the size of the vector.
+///
+/// Similarly on destruction the elements are destroyed only when the page is
+/// not needed anymore, delaying invoking the destructor of the elements.
+///
+/// Notice that this does not have iterators, because if you have iterators it
+/// probably means you are going to touch all the memory in any case, so better
+/// use a std::vector in the first place.

That is not what I'm suggesting that you change here.
