For some reason, finding a Java type is slower when searched by quicksearch than in "Go to Type" dialog.
Steps to reproduce: 1) search for a certain string in go to type dialog. 2) search for the same string in quicksearch The difference on a more or less standard machine is big enough to be perceived.
are you searching through all quicksearch categories or just the 'go to type' one?
I checked both and it appears to be slower in both cases, in searching all as well as 'go to type' only.
There is 600ms delay between your stop of typing and real start of search. Do you think, that this is the difference?
Yep, that can be the case ..
I implemented immediate cancel of old searches and delay is set to 300ms.
