Don't send request on each keystroke.

Aye. here's me typing in "rail timeline"

might want to cancel inflight requests instead... Would need some experimenting to see if it makes any difference to the backend latency.

I'm supposed to be doing it...

omnidrive-chrome-extension/src/background.js

Line 54 in de52a4d

xhr.abort();

Let me have a deeper look

So I am cancelling inflight requests.
To improve this, I've now added (32571e6) a 200ms delay before actually asking Drive to see how it feels.

[paulirish]

in some casual tests, it seems like theres more server latency with each check. my guess is raising 200 to 300 would be worth it.

I've increased the delay to 300ms and published version 3.5 at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gpnikbcifngfgfcgcgfahidojdpklfia
