My observations were somehow related to autorevert, specifically I
found tramp looping around calls to accept-process-output (I suppose
tramp was waiting for output that didn't arrive).

You may say that such problems are caused by auto-revert, but I think
that tramp should never wait indefinitely for output that obviously
will never come.  Since tramp calls accept-process-output in a loop,
relying on the timeout on accept-process-output alone is not enough.
