Summary	0004182: computationally expensive operations should be run in a worker thread
Description	While the UI is technically still responsive when the background page is doing work, the background page will not respond to events when it is busy, leading to perceived lag. The expensive computations should be done in a worker thread. Unfortunately this adds another layer of RPC, but in the long term it's necessary.
