The issue is probably not how many files you need but how
many sites you need. If it is 1 file per site I'd definitely
go with asyncio (and added complexity) but if its only a few
sites(3 or 4 say?) then a thread per site might suffice and be simpler.

You could of course just use one thread and process all sites
in turn from there if your desired polling interval is not
too short. In other words if all you want to do is stop the
GUI from blocking a single thread is all you need and by
far the simplest option.
