Thanks for checking this version.  Now I can confirm
the same after changing lazy-highlight-initial-delay
from 0 to 0.25.  This is now fixed in a new version.

Like you suggested, I added a new option in a new version.

(defcustom isearch-lazy-count-prefix #'isearch-lazy-count-prefix-default

But maybe better to allow the users to specify the format like

(defcustom isearch-lazy-count-prefix-format "%s/%s"

What do you think?

Here is a new version:

isearch.count.6.el
