    This is themable; look at the windowContentOverlay attribute. In particular, you can create a new theme:

    <style name="Theme.Foo" parent="android:style/Theme.Light">
    <item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
    </style>


    And then declare that your activity should use this theme:

    <activity android:name=".FooActivity"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.Foo"> ...


    Although a better option is to set this theme for all activities in the application, for consistency:

    <application android:theme="@style/Theme.Foo"> ...

So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...
