AUTOCOMPLETION *ins-autocompletion*
Vim can display a completion menu as you type, similar to using |i_CTRL-N|,
but triggered automatically. See 'autocomplete' and 'autocompletedelay'.
The menu items are collected from the sources listed in the 'complete' option.
but triggered automatically. See 'autocomplete'. The menu items are collected
from the sources listed in the 'complete' option, in order.
Unlike manual |i_CTRL-N| completion, this mode uses a decaying timeout to keep
Vim responsive. Sources earlier in the 'complete' list are given more time
(higher priority), but every source is guaranteed a time slice, however small.
A decaying timeout keeps Vim responsive. Sources earlier in the 'complete'
list get more time (higher priority), but all sources receive at least a small
time slice.
This mode is fully compatible with other completion modes. You can invoke
any of them at any time by typing |CTRL-X|, which temporarily suspends
autocompletion. To use |i_CTRL-N| specifically, press |CTRL-E| first to
dismiss the popup menu (see |complete_CTRL-E|).
See also 'autocomplete', 'autocompletetimeout' and 'autocompletedelay'.

slightly above your typing speed. See |ins-autocompletion|.
*'autocompletetimeout'* *'act'*
'autocompletetimeout' 'act' number (default 80)
global
Initial timeout (in milliseconds) for the decaying time-sliced
completion algorithm. Starts at this value, halves for each slower
source until a minimum is reached. All sources run, but slower ones
are quickly de-prioritized. The default is tuned so the popup menu
opens within ~200ms even with multiple slow sources on a slow system.
Changing this value is rarely needed. Only 80 or higher is valid.
Special case: when 'complete' contains "F" or "o" (function sources),
a longer timeout is used, allowing up to ~1s for sources such as LSP
servers that may sometimes take longer (e.g., while loading modules).
See |ins-autocompletion|.
