I suspect that it's just too big for the autocomplete. I've only tested up to a couple of MB. Try the search function from (bibliography search from the command list) and see if anything appears. If not then it's definitely a size issue. Not much to be done in that case, because the bibtex parsing is already a bit of a mess because bibtex is itself a big mess, which makes it very hard to optimise.

Great package. Thanks. Tried with a very small .bib file and it worked great. Swapped to my real .bibfile (7000+ papers, 15.5 MB) and it doesn't appear to be working. The autocomplete just doesn't trigger.
Now, if Autocomplete just isn't up to parsing that large a file, I'd totally understand. But, I wondered if you had a sense of whether this was a file-size issue or something else. Is there any way I could check?

Checked and it does seem to be length. I'm always stunned anyone can parse a single bibtex entry, much less 7000 of them. Thank you.
