Good question. I think you're suggesting...
* statementsToCreateAndPopulateSQLDatabase = httpGet();
* foreach(statement in above) { execute(statement); }
* now you get to run queries of interest
Certainly going to use more client-side CPU than downloading a fully
formed db file. I think the download size would greater (all of the
'INSERT into' text overhead), but thats just a guess. A database
containing FTS tables would change things a bit too (even less
client-side cpu, but more download size).
