776412 - Latest nightly takes a really long time to load keyboard

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Keyboards and IME, defect)

Description

[Scott Johnson (:jwir3)]

This seems happens on my galaxy s2 with the Darkside Evolution ROM (Darkside Kernel v3.0.8-perf) and the Swype keyboard installed. Note that it might be something to do with the ROM/keyboard interaction, too, since I've noticed slowness with the phone app as well (although that doesn't use the keyboard, but it does exhibit similar problems). 

I didn't originally notice this on my phone. It's only been in the last ~5 days that the nightlies have been exhibiting this behavior.

STR: 

1. Launch nightly (or utilize a nightly already launched, as it isn't specific to new instances).
2. Click on awesome bar.

Expected Results:
Awesome bar comes up, brings up keyboard immediately for typing.

Actual Results:
Awesome bar comes up, displays a list of historical sites visited, but the keyboard takes ~10 seconds to come up, so I can't search for what seems like a long time.
