[Qt-creator] Thou Shalt Not Lock Thy GUI Thread

[Willy P]

Hey,
I really love Qt Creator but the recent version is giving me lots of
trouble.  Code completion for my project was REALLY well done with the
Qt 4.5.3 sdk.  It was somewhat weak on templated objects but it was
fast and it made my day easier.  For whatever reason, the most recent
SDK, 4.6.3, has dog slow code completion.  And what's worse, it locks
my GUI thread while it's thinking.  I should never get a spinning
beach ball while I'm typing text.  It's missing characters that I type
and completely ruining my flow.  I know code completion is a REALLY
hard problem to solve but it would be great if Creator were not so
confident in it's ability to solve it that it prevents me from just
typing it myself.

On a smaller scale is there any way I can give you a repro without
handing over my source code?  I'm happy to help get to the bottom of
this problem in any way I can.
