1868279 - Schedule downloading of domain-to-category attachments inside an idle event

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

DS would like to expand the number of domains used for the categorization process by 2.5x (30k to ~75k).

The issue with the current implementation is we're doing all the downloads one after another before parsing the data and then moving all the data into a single object.

I worry the downloading process might end up taking much longer and become more noticeable. To make this a bit more future proof in case the number of domains expands to a much larger number, I think it'd be better to refactor the code so that both download and parsing is inside of a call to Services.tm.idleDispatchToMainThread.

Closing as INVALID as this shouldn't be an issue since the current implementation shouldn't cause a performance regression.
