Fetching of email address too slow since TB 31

Since the update to TB 31, fetching email addresses while typing a part of it and hitting tab does not work.

Ex. I have an email saved as sample@emailid.com. Till the update I would quickly type "samp" and hit tab immediately. It would automatically fetch that email. Since the update I would have to wait till the list of possible email addresses show up and than hit tab.

This is really disturbing and time consuming. Maybe it has something to do with the recent changes made in that area. How could I disable the new function to revert back to the old behavior and maybe speed things up a notch again?

As I said in the other thread, the fix should be in 31.1 which is out now.
