Do you use ajax live searching?
With rails 2 I had used observe_field.
Now in rails 3 with unobtrusive javascript it can be used jquery and
onkeyup event, but I don't like keyup, on every key I press there is a
database search, it's too expensive.
What solutions do you adopt?

each onkeyup restarts a timer, if the timer ever expires (100ms or so) then fire the search.
