It seems that "places.sqlite" and "places.sqlite-wal" are top main-thread IO offenders (see URL). Would it be feasible to move some of the IO off the main thread?

we already have a bunch of work in progress and projects for this, I will add dependencies and use this as a meta for that ongoing work. We clearly CAN and SHOULD convert to async IO, it's just a slow process one side for lack of resources, the other side cause there are a lot of consumers of the main-thread APIs to convert (and add-ons).
