Follow up question, then:

Are you performing those operations over network? (and especially - over
VPN/WAN/Tunnel)? If so, what you're describing sounds like the output
packet sizes may be too large for your path's MTU. If you take the network
interface you're coming through MTU and reduce it, to, let's say, 1300,
does the problem persist? (/sbin/ifconfig eth0 mtu 1300)
