Seems to work very well. But given the fact that icomplete.el has been usable for a long time already, I suspect that the performance issue is only in our heads, That is what we have to assume unless somebody would come up with some really strong evidence to the contrary. On my machine, the highlighting corrects instantaneously, even for complex examples that completely change by deletion or addition of a single character. Sincerely, Luc.
