Google Suggest Algo
How does Google Suggest work, one may ask yourself. Easy. When you type - it hits Google via XmlHttp from javascript:
The request does not hit search query yet. It just hits pre-saved index-list of list of favorite searches on the web server. When you are ready to search - only here the whole thing starts using Google main index for search. I think that by this time it uses somewhat old index and not the most updated one.
