Issue Description

When Chrome opens a very large piece of content (e.g. several MB log file) and you start to type our search expression, the delay of executing a search after every key press as the full expression is incrementally types is problematic. An option to delay searching for some time (to allow a full expression to be entered), or until the user instructs they are now complete (e.g. ENTER / "go" / etc.)
