Oh, yep that's a whopper. Downloading that during the job is very
likely to make it slow and unreliable. Baking it into our worker
base images is also questionable since we need to be able to boot
them in cloud providers who may give us as little as a 20 GiB root
filesystem device. If it can be compressed or filtered to an order
of magnitude smaller, then that seems more reasonable to work with.
Otherwise we'd need some separate online query service to hold the
database and handle the lookups (either hosted in our infrastructure
or elsewhere).
