Name resolution makes no difference for me (on Win XP).

The only thing that is slow is when digits are entered.  I can enter any 
number of non-digit characters and there is no delay.  A delay occurs as 
soon as I type the first digit after the ==.  See my previous message for a 
detailed explanation of when I see the delay.

It does NOT happen for me in 0.10.12 (I don't have 0.10.13 installed).
