Very wild guess.  Please do C-h v tramp-chunksize RET and run the Lisp
code shown in the documentation for tramp-chunksize and report your
findings.

The Lisp snippet contains a number, 1000.  If you do not observe a
problem (i.e., you that bytes sent always equals bytes received), then
please also try larger values, 10000 or 100000 or 1000000.
