Comment 3 for bug 1727557

I just dug into this a bit more. The file downloads as quickly as the connection allows - on the 25Mb/s connection I'm on this is a matter of seconds. The part that is taking so long for larger files ("larger" probably meaning "more than the few you'd get on a sparsely-populated test dataset") is the "egLovefield" part, which parses each line of the file, then loads it into an offline database. I'm not sure what the alternatives are, but this clearly isn't working for real life data. :-/
