Memory consuming functions

[jaeilepp]

I ran memory profiler on our examples to track down memory consuming functions. I thought that I'd share the results here if someone else wants to look at it. The examples listed here have a peak consumption of over 1 GiB.

• datasets/plot_brainstorm_data.py (MRG: Better memory usage (#2) #2977)
• datasets/plot_spm_faces_dataset.py (MRG: Better memory usage (#2) #2977)

do you have the exact peak value for all of them?

Not right now, but I can check.
