The LC find & replace panel takes about 7-8 seconds to search, and its progress bar runs fairly smoothly from left to right. Your plugin takes longer, and the progress bar hangs at about 15% for the bulk of that time, then speeds rapidly to the end in the last 2 seconds. > I would suggest turning off the automatic reindexing in the preferences and > just click the index button manually to time it.
