Hi Francesco,

For a general fix with too large buffers there is the discussion with
Eli. Don't know, whether we will add such a check.

For the Tramp case, you might try the appended patch. It fires a warning
when the Tramp debug buffer exceeds a limit (tramp-debug-buffer-limit,
3GB by default).

Best regards, Michael.
