   I have a question for people using TRAMP in #Emacs. So Emacs is always open on my MacBook and I work almost all the time over TRAMP (over VPN) on remote servers. When I move physically somewhere else (say in coffeeshop), the connection sometimes stalls, causing my Emacs to freeze. Is there a way to set a timeout and prevent this? It’s very annoying. I understand t here’s no multiprocessing in Emacs so I guess I can’t hope to have only one buffer frozen and the rest to be working. Also see that

     @circfruit I don't think this is a TRAMP issue -- it will timeout after a while already. Emacs does have multiprocessing, but and TRAMP already uses it for somethings.

     You already tried C-g and see if it gets unstuck? That your system runs out of memory seems like a larger concern though ... it could be that there is some memory leak going on with Tramp connections or something leading up to 80G?

     More information needed though ...
