george,auto search process totally depends on server response time and search key return time,On Search focus. initAutocomplete function is called which call an ajax request .So in simple word, i can say it depends on result return time.

  • I notice that whatever I type it always takes about 2 seconds after last key press for the dropdown to update. Looking at the XHR timeline: there is about 900-1000ms TTFB and about 500-900ms for Content download. That is on a nearly empty store (15 products only). What kind of "Content download" are we talking about? This is a shared hosting but quite a fast one. How come a few words need 1s to download when I have full 100mbps connection to the host and all static files (images etc) literally fly. Is there a way to optimize this search?
