One should know where this message comes from. Maybe you can do the following: M-: (setq debug-on-quit t) When that message pops up the next time, you enter "C-g". This will result in a backtrace, which you could analyze (or send to the mailing list). > Have tried with the various backup options (on and off) but problem > still persists.

Not sure whether related. Hmm. It shouldn't matter, because timestamps are taken from the remote host. > This can be reproduced on both tramp 2.1.2 and 2.1.3.
