Can reproduce, wow. Just wanted to add, this happens allot. I would say at least 1/4 of the time, if not more. I write and read allot, so I try using it, but often have to go to google. Oh, and also also, I don't know about severity. I just picked normal, but I don't know how the severity system works so it may need to be increased since it renders it unusable a large portion of the time. Seems like this happens with words not found on dict.org. Somehow the detection of missing words fails, and it waits for the 30 second timeout of the dictionary runner to do anything.

Would it not be easier to have a local file work as a dictionary instead of requesting each word? Not only would that be faster but also work offline. |
