+def method_cache(method, cache_wrapper=None):
+    """
+    Wrap lru_cache to support storing the cache data in the object instances.
+
+    Abstracts the common paradigm where the method explicitly saves an
+    underscore-prefixed protected property on first call and returns that
+    subsequently.
+
+    >>> class MyClass:
+    ...     calls = 0
+    ...
+    ...     @method_cache
+    ...     def method(self, value):
+    ...         self.calls += 1
+    ...         return value
+
+    >>> a = MyClass()
+    >>> a.method(3)
+    3
+    >>> for x in range(75):
+    ...     res = a.method(x)
+    >>> a.calls
+    75
+
+    Note that the apparent behavior will be exactly like that of lru_cache
+    except that the cache is stored on each instance, so values in one
+    instance will not flush values from another, and when an instance is
+    deleted, so are the cached values for that instance.
+
+    >>> b = MyClass()
+    >>> for x in range(35):
+    ...     res = b.method(x)
+    >>> b.calls
+    35
+    >>> a.method(0)
+    0
+    >>> a.calls
+    75
+
+    Note that if method had been decorated with ``functools.lru_cache()``,
+    a.calls would have been 76 (due to the cached value of 0 having been
+    flushed by the 'b' instance).
+
+    Clear the cache with ``.cache_clear()``
+
+    >>> a.method.cache_clear()
+
+    Same for a method that hasn't yet been called.
+
+    >>> c = MyClass()
+    >>> c.method.cache_clear()
+
+    Another cache wrapper may be supplied:
+
+    >>> cache = functools.lru_cache(maxsize=2)
+    >>> MyClass.method2 = method_cache(lambda self: 3, cache_wrapper=cache)
+    >>> a = MyClass()
+    >>> a.method2()
+    3
+
+    Caution - do not subsequently wrap the method with another decorator, such
+    as ``@property``, which changes the semantics of the function.
+
+    See also
+    http://code.activestate.com/recipes/577452-a-memoize-decorator-for-instance-methods/
+    for another implementation and additional justification.
