Problem

When using remote execution, upload and download times may slow down invocations.

Suggested solution

DataProvider: extract upload and download times
SuggestionProvider: reduce upload and download times
- reduce upload times using --nolegacy_important_outputs (smaller BEP stream)
- reduce download times using --remote_download_minimal
  - could look at download times in critical path only
  - threshold might be 5% of critical path?
  - suggest maximum improvement by reducing critical path to at best critical path minus all download times
- set --experimental_remote_downloader to use Remote Asset API
  - look for "fetching: [...]" in analysis phase, should take up sufficiently significant time
  - if using remote caching/execution set value to remote cache/execution url
  - if fully local, could highlight that remote caching or execution could help, with this flag also set
