Description

IDE 1.6.11. When I have bad Wi-Fi I noticed that it can take a rather long time (up to 10 secs or so) before the IDE will execute a compile/upload command. When in such a case I disable Wi-Fi everything works normal again. Is the IDE checking something online before it starts compiling?

Research direction

Reproduce the delay with a poor Wi-Fi connection, then compare it with Wi-Fi disabled before compile or upload. Trace the IDE's compile/upload command path and look for an online check that blocks execution. Done means the command starts without the reported network-dependent delay, with a regression test if the relevant path supports one.
