Tramp is very, very slow to find the first remote file because it
has to setup the communication channel between Emacs and the remote
host.  In the time Tramp takes to find the file, I can ssh into the
box and start a local Emacs several times over.  (Tramp 2.1 is much
better than Tramp 2.0 in this regard, but it's still not perfect.)
