The highlighting you are used to is provided by the matchparen plugin.
'showmatch' and 'matchtime' are, on the other hand, for Vim's built-in
(i.e. not implemented as a plugin) matching functionality, which, rather
than highlighting, jumps the cursor to the matching opening
brace/bracket/parenthesis for a brief time after the closing character
in the pair is typed. Try typing some opening and closing parentheses
after `:set showmatch` and you'll see what I mean. This feature is
turned off by default.
As far as I know, the matchparen plugin does not refer to the
'matchtime' option to determine how long to highlight; it is either on
indefinitely or it is off. Barring modification to the plugin itself, I
don't think there's any way to get precisely what you want.
