Hi there! This is a known issue with amnThis is a known issue with using katapult and amarok.
Unfortunately, there isn't a "fix" as of such, as amarok is always going to be slow for us to access it's databaase. However, there is a way to temporarily fix this issue. If you load the configure Katapult menu, and look at the section startingh "Amarok Catalog" then you should be able to set the number of characters before it searches the amarok collection. If you set this to a higher numnber than 1, then the amarok collection will not be searched till after you have typed that amount of characters. I have mine set to 3, which I find useful In 0.4, however, we do have catalogs running in their own threads, so this will solve this issue then. for now, I will create a patch to make katapult use 5 chars before searching the amarok catalog by default.
