Wouldn't a 20 ms RTT mean 20 ms is swallowed by the Internet? As long as your 10 suggestions fit within the TCP receive window, you already have an active connection from the initial page load, so it's 1 RTT to get the data (you could put the images into data URIs so everything could be gathered in 1 fetch, right?). I'd expect the UI update to set a list of 10 items should also take way less time than a single frame. The 200 ms search seems impressive without me knowing much about what it needs to do, but the UI portion seems trivial?
