 Optimise creation and importing of domains (C-code and caching)  (Ole)
+Caching needs optional arguments: bypass_args and bypass_kwargs.
+These should be passed onto the function when it is evaluated but not participate in the hashing.
+Rationale: Some arguments such as classes change their signature at every run and thus cause the functin to be evaluated every time, defeating the purpose of caching.
