Great plugin but too slow.

Hey, this is a really cool feature, reduces the clutter in search results a lot. But it is way too slow as compared to Ag.vim . I haven't looked at the code, but I assume it's doing some post processing in vimscript to the results, and trying to create a buffer with locations, would be cool if you could somehow make it faster (maybe push the processing to ag and vim location buffer?)

Yea, I noticed that too. I'll try to make it faster. For the record though, it only gets slow for large amounts of results returned from ag. So, as a workaround, having more specific searches that return less results will be more performant.

So, I looked into it and it's not the processing of the results, but the system call itself that takes longer. The reason is that Ags.vim returns more lines than Ag.vim. However, you can set the g:ags_agcontext to 1 to get less lines and better performance.

I've added a fix to allow for setting ag args to 0. So setting this value let g:ags_agcontext = 0 will result in performance similar to Ag.vim
