Yes, I tried it on a pharo-dev image. I thought that there could be a conflict between ecomp and ocomp but I also thought that ocomp would disable ecomp when loading... anyway, I did not have the time to check that so I went to the previous image.�
(BTW I also tried to load ocomp on a pharo-core image and I could not because there is no Installer class. I could not either with the monticello brower... )

So, the performance issue was when typing class names. For example, I typed 'Ar' press tab and it took a lot to show the valid names. Selected Array and the started to delete it and it also took a lot of time to delete each character. I tried the same thing on an pharo-dev image without ocomp and worked fine... so there must be something going on.

Another thing that I found rare was this: When loading Ocomp I selected the packages Kernel, Collection and the one I'm working on. In a test class, when writing a test I wrote: "self as" and "assert:" was not in the options. I think it is because I did not select SUnit as a package, but I found this�annoying... If I sending a message to self �I think it should show all the messages that object could understood (that is, the ones defined in the class I working with and it superclasses. Ok, object has a lot of messages that could bother here, but at least it show show the messages up to object minus one I think)

Hope this help.

Since he uses pharo-dev, I guess Hernan has eCompletion too on his
image. Is that a problem?
