I don't care if there are results for the letter "a", if they are instant.

Don't become unresponsive after one key to search for results. If the search impacts responsiveness, you need to have a hold-off time before kicking it off so that a longer prefix/infix can be gathered which will reduce the search space and improve its relevance.
