kien/ctrlp.vim — Issue #112: Laggy performance after matching files a few directories deep

When matching files that are a few directories deep, the performance lags the more characters typed until nothing is matched.

This is on projects with about 2k total files.

i.e. matching app/controllers/namespace/something_controller.rb by typing "a/c/n/somethcontr", response starts to feel slow and laggy and CPU usage spikes.

On a project with about 4k+ total files, it starts taking 0.5-1s+ for characters typed to show up

Any ideas why this would be?
