Severe lag on livesearch in Firefox about cdda-guide

[nornagon]

Thanks for the profile! It looks like the browser is spending the majority of the time in the search system, which is just stock fuse.js. It seems to perform OK on Firefox on my machine, with search updates taking around 50ms, while that profile indicates around 700ms for a search (🙀 ). Are you using a low-powered machine?

Adding a ratelimit seems reasonable.

Same here. And I have a reasonable machine. Didn't know you must have a mining rig to run search on a website

Well it is old - Core I5-750 - but it's not that weak. And I never had such severe lags on other sites.

@GGgatherer I've tweaked some stuff to make searching a little faster. Would you mind trying again? I'm still not able to reproduce your results unfortunately :(

I've now swapped out the search engine for something that's quite a bit more performant (and I think more accurate too!). I'm closing this for now as I haven't heard any new reports, but happy to continue investigating if this continues to be an issue.
