Mark,

My text file is a "raw" file. When I open a stack, I create a simpler tab list.

Your code is much better for the 1 to 3 chars. But, if the name you search is at the end of the list (for example "rosat") it takes more time than my code.

If some body in the list is looking for a file with names and address

In the state of my tests, here the my “fastest” code:

Since you seem to want to limit the display to 60 lines, here's a much
faster version. This takes roughly 90 milliseconds to do an entire
list, irrespective of the number of chars. Note as well that your text
file is actually delimited by commas rather than tabs.

-- time of the filtered list
on keyUp
   local vListe
   local tTime

   put the milliseconds into tTime
   put test1(vNoms) into vListe
   put the milliseconds - tTime into field "fElapsedTime"
   put vListe into field "fListe"
end keyUp

function test1 pNoms
   local vListe
   local x

   set the itemdelimiter to comma
   put empty into vListe
   put 1 into x
   repeat for each line theLine in pNoms
       if item 2 of theLine contains me then
           put theLine & cr after vListe
           add 1 to x
           if x > 60 then
               put "..." & cr after vListe
               exit repeat
           end if
       end if
   end repeat
   return vListe
end test1
