Description:
To preserve apparent responsiveness and deliver the most relevant results quickly, I suggest that the search suggest functionality shouldn't make an ajax call until there are at least two characters already typed in the box.
Fix
Line 481 of mwsuggest.js:
os_fetchResults(r,query,os_search_timeout);
becomes:
if (query.length>=2) os_fetchResults(r,query,os_search_timeout);
