This bug also shows when only one file is changed. For my tests  
yesterday I gzip'ed the files from split in dired. After the file had  
been compressed and its file name was gone, its line in the dired  
buffer vanished – and no new line with <file name>.gz appeared. Could  
be setting file-precious-flag or tramp-verbose to non-default values  
caused this. Today, in non-windows Emacs, when I had set (setq tramp- 
verbose 10) and I compressed a remote file, it re-appeared with its  
gzip'ed name – and the next file on the line below disappeared. This  
behaviour could be repeated.

Today, this morning, the magic border seems to be raised above 11601  
bytes ...

 66+ 73+ 76+ 76+ 71+ 65+ 84+ 69+ 83 = 663

 and add 3 because he's Bill Gates the third.
