At this moment I'm using CXTranslationUnit_None for both parsing and reparsing the translation unit, because it seems that as soon as I turn on default settings for parse/reparse (clang_defaultEditingTranslationUnitOptions and clang_defaultReparseOptions respectively) code completion stops giving me the right results. Sure I could keep using CXTranslationUnit_None but as soon as I include additional headers to my source file, the whole thing becomes too slow.

Are you saving the tu then reloading it, or parsing it from scratch everytime?
