Note that with GDBus the resulting GDBusMessage is actually being built in a separate (and private) thread - so in practice there is zero overhead in the GUI thread - in particular it doesn't depend on what kind of message it is or how big the message is. The same is true for most of libgio's file and networking primitives (e.g. g_file_load_contents_async() will cause work to happen in a worker thread etc.).
