But if we want to support remote files with auto-revert, we'll need something like that patch (after we've fixed the crashes). As you already expected, it did not fix my problems. I actually now seem to get much more frequent freezes and crashes. (Tramp is currently outright unusable for me with auto-reverting of remote files enabled.) This can not be due to your patch, however. Maybe setting tramp-chunksize to 500 slowed things down, or maybe my connection got temporarily worse again. Of course, Lars reported crashes using Tramp and he is _not_ using auto-revert. I have never seen any of my problems when auto-reverting of remote files is disabled or when auto-revert is not active. Sincerely, Luc.
