Short comings

Some queries may run slower than others, and this is because all filteration is done in JavaScript. The Chrome History API only takes text field search, nonetheless eHistory is highly optimized and implements certain hacks to get the results as fast as possible. Another pain point would be that Chrome's history API doesn't expose the snippet which can reveal which part of the page your search string actually matched.
