That makes sense... it requires a JavaScript file (which should be quick to serve as it's cached everywhere) and then when you are typing it makes additional requests for JSON files to tell you which usernames match your search.
If you don't have a good/fast signal, then you may not get those files in a way that makes the drop down instantly appear.
I find that the existence of a drop down depends on my connection speed.
