Performance impact on large files

[Cowcium]

Thanks for this plugin, it's really great. I have noticed a pretty severe performance impact on larger files though (around 5000 lines it gets hard to ignore on my machine, although even small files can see this impact to a lesser degree).

This impact happens even with live gutter and live blame turned off (although its worse with those turned on).
Scrolling through autocomplete suggestions is a good way to see it so I have recorded a few videos to help display what I mean.

Any suggestions on something I could change to lessen this impact? Possibly prevent the plugin from reevaluating stuff more than once every x milliseconds etc.?

I appreciate you taking the time to share these concerns and help VGit plugin be better.

I have been working on performance optimizations for this plugin on the develop branch which will eventually become v1.1.x branch once the work stabilizes.

Your concerns should hopefully be addressed soon. But in the mean time feel free to checkout develop if you wanna give it a test.

I tried out the develop branch and performance is now flawless! Thank you!
