There are only some evolutionary improvements; the basic scheme is the
same. So we cannot expect wonders.

However, there was an error in tramp-cache.el which I have just fixed,
this might result in some changes. Since Tramp depends on cached
properties, you shall always count the second and following tests of
start-file-process; the first run needs time to fill the cache.

And for better comparision, you shall also set tramp-verbose to 0.

Best regards, Michael.
