Autocompletion is slow and sometimes it is blocking Sublime Text for ever with 0% CPU usage

The auto completion provided by the class:

class LatexCwlCompletion(sublime_plugin.EventListener):
    '''
    Event listener to supply cwl completions at appropriate points
    '''

    def on_query_completions(self, view, prefix, locations):
        if not is_cwl_available():
            return []

Is too slow to show up, and some times it just hangs Sublime Text for ever with 0% CPU usage. To recover from this hang I need to kill plugin_host.exe and then Sublime Stops hanging, so I can save my work and restart Sublime Text.

Noticed my computer has only 1GHz (2.67GHz underclocked 67%), adding return [] fixes the problem of slow show up auto completion and indefinite hanging which can happen some times:

class LatexCwlCompletion(sublime_plugin.EventListener):
    '''
    Event listener to supply cwl completions at appropriate points
    '''

    def on_query_completions(self, view, prefix, locations):
        return []
        if not is_cwl_available():
            return []

You can also disable the cwl completions by setting [command_completion](https://github.com/SublimeText/LaTeXTools/blob/st3-3.14.2/LaTeXTools.sublime-settings#L64] to "never". Do you have a single or multi-core cpu?

Thanks. It has has 4 cores. With slow I mean Sublime Text hangs a few seconds before them to show up. The computer characteristics are:
