idmtools.entities.task_proxy module

Defines our TaskProxy object.

The TaskProxy object is mean to reduce the memory requirements of large simulation sets/configurations after provisioning. Instead of keeping the full original object in memory, the object is replaced with a proxy object with minimal information needed to work with the task.
