Subject: bug#9617: 23.1; Tramp blocks other Emacs use while waiting
Date: Tue, 27 Sep 2011 10:29:54 -0700

There are sometimes unavoidable delays in using Tramp to access remote
files. It would be very useful if it were possible to load or save a
buffer using Tramp in a non-blocking way so that use of Emacs on other
buffers could continue.

In GNU Emacs 23.1.3 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.4)
 of 2009-08-20 on rhel5-x64.grid.gs.washington.edu
Windowing system distributor `The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.70101000
configured using `configure  '--prefix=/net/gs/vol3/software/modules-sw/emacs/23.1/Linux/RHEL5/x86_64' '--with-x' '--with-gif=no''
