  I performed this test.  Alas, unless tramp-chunksize is set to 127 the
connection hangs.  Even once the connection is made, if I change the
sleep-for value the "save" still takes 1-2 minutes to complete.  This
appears to be a Windows hang outwardly.  Control finally will return to
the window.  Any other thoughts or ideas?
