  I use org-contacts with Wanderlust and I see it makes contact completion very slow (5 seconds for each keypress, and that's with only 200 contacts).
  Therefore I use its infrastructre (because I like it) but I don't run its code. I'll explain myself:

  I keep this structure in an .org file:

** John von Neumann															:mathematic:
   :PROPERTIES:
   :EMAIL:	john@neumann.com
   :END:
- some info


  I use tags, I store e-mails, and I can write any infos, subsections, appointments, tasks, etc. which I want; even clock in.
  If I want to search for a contact, I simply open that buffer and use C-s or do a tags search.
  You can use org-capture to fill that file.


  I strongly prefer this system over BBDB.


Greetings,
Daniel
