Review comment:
       Discussed offline, but capturing here for the record. These sets contain 
the transitive collection of everything downstream of any side-input consuming 
transform, and as such can be large even if the total number of side inputs is 
small. (The number of distinct such sets is about the same as the number of 
side inputs, so we keep the total memory use down by re-using them--to give 
each transform its own copy would easily be O(n^2).)
   
   Your change of computing the side input mapping after the graph has been 
fused is good (and arguably better, as you only need the immediate consumers, 
and don't have to re-compute each time a stage is fused).
