Description
Sometime between version 0.64.1 and now, the build triggering behavior seems to have changed. Whereas changes within a file still produced a reasonably fast auto-complete, it seems like each keystroke now triggers a rebuild of the entire project including the edited file, other files in the project and all declared Java dependencies. This seems to generally make auto-complete unusable since one is likely typing around the time auto-complete is needed and if each keystroke triggers a 1 minute build, auto-complete is generally always loading.
Perhaps it's possible to restrict the rebuilding to the edited file, or cache all the symbols from the previous build until the next build is ready?
Environment

Additional Informations
When I start typing, it triggers the below in the Java Build Status pane. Each build takes a few minutes.
