Research direction

Start at the background job import path and inspect how ZipArchive handles files from S3 primary storage, encryption, and Local storage through getLocalFile(). Compare approaches for making the archive available locally or using a library that supports streaming extraction; done means imports work for the affected non-local storage cases.

Description

performance

The current background job import is using temporary storage when dealing with s3 primary storage or encryption.
This is because the ZipArchive can only open local files, so we need to download the file if it's not directly readable like with Local storage (using $file->getLocalFile().

To solve this, we might need to research using a different library which supports streaming the zip file somewhere for extraction.
