This happens when the search runs into a time limit. It is currently set to 40 msec. That's high enough to make most searches work, and low enough that you usually don't notice the delay. There currently is no way to set another timeout. You can pass a timeout to the searchcount() function, but that's not used here. Adding an option for the time is likely not very useful, you would want to keep it low normally, and only set it high when you actually look at the count. Perhaps we should have a command to force displaying the count without a timeout. -- hundred-and-one symptoms of being an internet addict: 167.
