Thanks for this explaination. I assume the timeout for the search is just too short then. I have a local version that move it to 1s. In this local version it is also configurable via a gconf key, so if it is not good, we can experiment with a different timeout (the timeout is the time after you stopped tying until it starts with the search).
Please reopen if the increased timeout does not make things better.
