You are unlikely to find here anyone who could interpret that data, let alone correlate it with something that is caused by Emacs on Windows. You may have better luck attaching a debugger to ssh when it hangs and finding out the reason why it hangs. Then, perhaps some ssh developer could tell you what might be the possible reason(s) for that. Only then, maybe, it would be possible to see how all this is related to Emacs and/or Windows. Sorry.
