Tramp tries to do this, but it is limited. It sees the remote side on
the perspective of a primitive file operation it has an implementation
for, see the list on (info "(elisp) Magic File Names")
And yes, 'basic-save-buffer' doesn't belong to this list.
Tramp tries to combine several actions in order to decrease the number
of roundtrips. And it uses caches. But all of this is mimited.
Tramp offers s special trace mode which shows you the external commands
it sends per primitive file operation. Call something like
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# emacs -Q --eval '(setq tramp-debug-command-messages t)' /ssh::
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
In the debug buffer, there are messages of level 4 (entering a primitive
file operation), level 5 (exiting the same operation), and level 6 (the
remote commands Tramp emits). Like
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
12:11:26.513974 tramp-sh-handle-file-exists-p (4) # Running `(file-exists-p "/ssh:gandalf:/net/ford/albinus/Books.org")' ...
12:11:26.514344 tramp-send-command (6) # test -e /net/ford/albinus/Books.org 2>/dev/null; echo tramp_exit_status $?
12:11:26.530496 tramp-wait-for-regexp (6) #
tramp_exit_status 0
///fd26d4d0719c81d3c6e45f14adefee05#$
12:11:26.530742 tramp-sh-handle-file-exists-p (5) # Running `(file-exists-p "/ssh:gandalf:/net/ford/albinus/Books.org")' ... t
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This is my tool to analyze. Several optimiztations have been performed
already, but there is still room for improvement, proposals/patches
welcome.
Best regards, Michael.
