provideinlinecompletionitems is getting triggered on every keystroke.

[chandrap]

provideinlinecompletionitems of a vscode extension that provides completions is being triggered on every keystroke. Is there a way to configure the trigger time after certain debounce time (say 300ms) instead of every keystroke?

Any idea why the debounce (https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/e15b7b08a906b1e974a6a8bbd801c7c6863f7a2b/src/vs/editor/contrib/inlineCompletions/browser/inlineCompletionsModel.ts#L47) is not enforced here?

you can just wait for some time and check the cancelation token.

Is the debounce threshold adjustable by the user? @hediet

It is not.

It makes sense to allow extension developer to adjust this debounce setting right? The completion provider service is likely to be flooded from the short debounce intervals. It should allow the extension developer to limit how frequent their provider is called. @hediet
