        # Install cache
        install_cache('web_cache', backend='sqlite', expire_after=180)

        # Function to fetch a web page
        def fetch_page(url):
            response = requests.get(url)
            return response.content

        # Example usage
        html_content = fetch_page('http://example.com')
        print(html_content)
