Bug Description
Acire uses what I believe is called a synchronous function to load the snippet into the text view/source view. Because of this, the whole application freezes while the snippet is being loaded into the window. When it finally loads, then the application becomes usable again.
The solution to this problem would be to implement snippet loading in an asynchronous function, so that the rest of the application will not need to wait for the function to return, thus eliminating the freezing.
I also got the same problem. It happens only when the computer is connected to the internet. The problem happens when the Acire tries to get the title of documentation page (the snippet_docs url) from the internet.
