Why is searching with the awesome bar so slow?
recently i noticed that when i tried searching for something using the awesome bar, it was a whole lot slower than searching with the search bar. this happens every time.
i also tried searching with the awesome bar using firefox's keyword search where i put google's keyword as simply "g". so if i wanted to search for let's say "computer" on google, i type "g computer" in the awesome bar, hit enter, and the google results comes up almost instantly. but if i just type in "computer" the page takes much much longer to load!
is it just me or is this a common problem? any fix for this?

Any updates here? I can confirm this only happens when you don't lead with 'g' and that it's not caused by bookmark/history search since it happens after you hit enter and the history drop down disappears. It also seems to speed up after the term / page you searched is cached.
I've played around with about:config Keyword.URL to no avail. Any ideas? Anyone not have this problem when they simply type "test" and hit enter?
Are you keeping a large history?
Do you see a spinning favicon on the left hand side of the location bar when that happens?
This can be caused by a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
