So we cannot expect wonders. However, there was an error in tramp-cache.el which I have just fixed, this might result in some changes. Since Tramp depends on cached properties, you shall always count the second and following tests of start-file-process; the first run needs time to fill the cache. And for better comparision, you shall also set tramp-verbose to 0. Best regards, Michael.
