notes:
- When running fetch with C(become), the M(slurp) module will also be
used to fetch the contents of the file for determining the remote
checksum. This effectively doubles the transfer size, and
depending on the file size can consume all available memory on the
remote or local hosts causing a C(MemoryError). Due to this it is
advisable to run this module without C(become) whenever possible.
