But it sounds like a chunksize related problem. AFAIR, True64 target
systems have been reported to suffer from this problem, and sending
the mimencode Perl function is the first bigger string sent to the
target system; therefore the problem happens first here.

Best would be if you set

     (setq tramp-debug-buffer t
           tramp-verbose 10)

Then rerun your test, and submit a bug report via "M-x tramp-submit-bug".
Both buffers  *tramp/foo* and *debug tramp/foo* would be helpful for
analyzing; please provide them too.

Best regards, Michael.
