LinkSuggest

Sometime in the past 24 hours a strange thing started occurring in Source mode. As soon as one types opening braces (i.e., curly brackets, {{ ) to begin inputting a call to a template, the editor starts to crawl, and I do mean crawl. You see the letters appear one-by-one at least 20 to 30 characters behind your actual typing. It is so slow, that I have had to resort to exiting the editor, going back in, and cutting and pasting in what I had already typed. However, when I can remember, rather than let the LinkSuggest kick in, I compose the curly-bracket template input in Notepad, and then cut and paste it into the editor, thus bypassing LinkSuggest, and preventing the tremendous slowdown. Otherwise, LinkSuggest is working on our wiki. However, you have to use the mouse to make the selection, whereas with the soon-to-be-replaced current Oasis editor, and the Monobook editor, you can use the up and down arrow keys and then press Enter.
