What's this bug about? I feel like I must have missed something.
First,there is invisible autocomplete slowdown that causes typing lag For example, i click on titlebar, hit backspace. Then for every letter i type in about 20 setTimeouts of _setUpOverflow ( http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/content/widgets/autocomplete.xml#1458 ) are called each takes 7-15ms, sometimes more. This causes a second of more of cursor lag when typing into location bug. As far I can tell end result of that function is usually nothing.
Updating searchengines on first autocomplete display takes 750ms on first run, +15ms(barely above noise) to show the popup. This is just js overhead. I don't have a way to measure layout costs.

sorry for bug spam. Many of the bugs which are marked invalid, I see comments telling it occurred in one version or other. But later it was fixed due to 1) by backingout the patch which made regression or 2) by fixing some other bug. So if we can identify the bug/patch/reason then we should state that and mark those as FIXED. If not mark as WORKSFORME in that case.
