Plans on making it faster than coq.nvim?

[ahmedkhalf]

Hello, I was just wondering if they were perhaps planning to make this plugin faster than nvim-compe and coq.nvim. Like recently, for example, Telescope pushed a feature for asynchronous matching which greatly improved the speed.

Also, I see that there is source creation, any plans on making sort creation too?

First, Do you feel thw nvim-cmp slow now?

I think I had optimize nvim-cmp as much as possible.

If nvim ships mpack module as builtin, I will try to use it to improve performance.

What is the optimization?
It is very interesting.

[hrsh7th]

nvim-cmp will cache the filtered items in every key stroke ( of cource, invalidate it if need)

See neovim/neovim#15452

@ahmedkhalf I will improve the documentation. Currently, this is not stable status and under development so documentation priority is a bit low than feature implementation.

If your question solved, please close this issue.

I guess mpack is shipped with neovim right now.

[hrsh7th]

Yes. I will investigate and try and error with it.

@hrsh7th now that 0.6 is released would you tell us about progress you have made on using builtin mpack module, btw cmp is really fast and response but who doesn't want a faster completion engine right?

I sometimes investigate when I have a free hand.
e.g. https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-lua-rpc-example-with-headless

I can't think of a good solution for now.
