add a nbytes property, indicating the operator storage footprint.
delete method for operators, to force deletion of an operator,
alongside its associated operators. If the storage footprint of the
deleted operators exceeds a certain threshold GC_NBYTES_THRESHOLD,
a garbage collection is triggered.
ProxyOperator for on-the-fly computations. In a group of proxy
operators, only one actual operator is cached. The proxy operators
inherit all the properties from the actual operators.
add a context manager setting to change a global variable value.
Under the hood:
Renamed operator flag ‘inplace_reduction’ -> ‘update_output’. And
make it a regular flag, i.e. the ‘update_output’ is no more
inferred from the direct method signature.
