Hi,
the *ipython* console/ *qtconsole* never uses *Kite*. As far as I know Kite 
only supplies extra completions. The display of the doc strings and the 
method/function signature is provided by another linting tool - probably 
*jedi*. The whole linting and completion functionality is bundled in a *python 
language server *(pyls). The server should provide completion options along 
with kite's completion. If kite is too slow on your PC, try to disable it.

Kind regards,
yfprojects
