This behaviour can be remedied to some extent +by setting the new variable process-adaptive-read-buffering to a +non-nil value (the default), as it will automatically delay reading +from such processes, to allowing them to produce more output before +emacs tries to read it. + +++ ** Enhanced networking support.
