Overview

Sprint lead: sdwilsh
Sprinters: dietrich, Mardak

Description
Increase the speed of which location bar searches get results.

Goals / Use Cases

  • Get more file IO off the the main thread.
  • Stop filtering search results on the main thread.

Non Goals

  • Change functionality of the location bar in any way.

Design

The idea is to use the asynchronous storage API and a user defined SQL function implemented in native code. This does mean we basically need to throw out all of our existing code for AutoComplete and start from scratch.
