Editor geht's slowed down by analysing my source

I have a large project under BCB4.
Whenever my cursor is for a short time resting on one
of my source code statements, I get an hour glass and it
takes 10 to 15 sec. until it shows me details of the
particulary function, variable, etc. But I'm not interested
in that, I just wasn't quick enough to get the cursor away
from the code.
Is there any way to switch off this annoying feature? Or to set
the time before it starts the annoying work?
I tried several option in the "environment options" under "editor"
and "code insight" w/o success.

Yes, turn off the Tooltip Symbol Insight under Code Insight in the
Environment options.

Thanks.
But in "code insight" under "automatic features" there are 3 selections
which I all turned off. And I did set the time to max (1.5s).
No change! ?? (BCB4) I do have a project open and am not
in debugging mode. Just editing the source.
I just read the help to "code insight". There are also talking
about "Tooltip symbol insight". But this is not in my window.
Under "automatic features" I have
- "code completion"
- "code parameters"
- "tooltip expression evaluation"
- the delay bar
- the follows "code templates"....
...there is no "Tooltip symbol insight"
Am I blind?

I also have BCB4 and have that option. I wonder why it is not there.

Well, I cannot help much I guess, because I have only BCB 6 Ent.
available here. I have four options instead of three. Might be
an issue with large system font not displaying the last option
in your groupbox.
However, you can search for "Code Insight" in your registry and
set the values manually ("Code Insight" should be somewhere in
HCU/Software/Borland).
Another option: Can't you stop code evaluation by pressing the
escape key when it happens?
