           Summary: Debug Inspector Code Search is Slow
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh Intel
               URL: http://280slides.com/Editor
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: rboucher at gmail.com


The debug inspector is great, and having code search makes it very powerful.
Unfortunately, the code search is far too slow on large code bases. 

Try starting up the debugger on 280 Slides (http://280slides.com/Editor). Open
the debug tab, start debugging, and enter the search term "toggleNotes:"

On my computer (2ghz macbook pro), returns zero results. If I try again, still
zero results. But, if I then try searching for just "toggle" about half a dozen
times, I'll eventually get a couple results. If I slowly add the rest of
"Notes:" in, it will eventually find the two "toggleNotes:" results that it
should have found originally.

It's ok to make me wait as long as it takes, but to proclaim there are zero
results when there are obviously not is definitely an error. Of course, being
able to do this search in a few seconds or less would make it much more useful.
