See comment in ExposureProcessor.download_and_load_exposure in pipeline/pipeline_exposure_processor.py:

        # TODO : this Exposure object is going to be copied into every processor subprocess                             
        #   *Ideally* no data was loaded, only headers, so the amount of memory used is                                 
        #   not significant, but we should investigate/verify this, and deal with it if                                 
        #   that is not the case.
