I just have two annoyances: 1. Where there are too many options, lag is noticeable (eg. with C-h o). 2. The completion buffer keeps appearing and disappearing, shrinking and growing. The first would probably just be fixed by not auto-completing under a certain number of characters like icomplete. The second point isn't directly related to aggressive-completion, but maybe it could provide a user-option to avoid the issue, seeing that it is more noticeable when the completion buffer is automatically changing. I tried setting window-min-height and temp-buffer-max-height (and temp-buffer-resize-mode) to the same value, but that limits all windows. -- Philip K.
