I experienced this one day while tethering in the train. I was coding and running `go build` multiple times.

I could not for the life of me understand why go build would take upwards to 30 seconds to run and sometimes 100ms. I finally realized it was related to my internet connection being extremely spotty. I went online and searched if anybody had the same experience with `go build` but couldn't find anything.

I finally know what happened. This is a pretty intolerable "feature".

Does it work at all when unconnected?

I don't remember if it did or not, but I'm fairly certain it did. (otherwise I'd probably remember it, I think...)
