Helm: Hitting enter immediately after typing pattern into M-x helm-mini results in "Display not ready"
When I M-x helm-mini, start typing a search pattern, then immediately press enter, the [Display not ready] message appears in the mini buffer. If I wait in between typing the pattern and pressing enter, it behaves as expected. Is there a way to decrease or eliminate this "dead" period where I have to wait until I press enter? It is a bit annoying to have to wait before proceeding.

This is a new thing so still in flux some what, I believe.

Perfect. That seems to be working very nicely.

For what it's worth, this is seriously annoying behavior. I've been tripping over it for the last couple of days and it has made Helm go from a delight to a constant annoyance. Thanks very much for the workaround, but please consider reverting whatever change made this start happening…
(Although I'd suggest to others looking for a workaround that (customize-variable 'helm-exit-idle-delay) is a better way to go about it than setq…)

@glyp Why is that?

@IvanMalison The answer from @rileyrg has the right idea :). (Also using all the letters in the @-mention does make it get through faster :))
