You must stop Emacs, delete ~/.emacs.d/tramp, and restart Emacs then.
~/.emacs.d/tramp is written when exiting Emacs.

Much simpler is to call "M-x tramp-cleanup-all-connections", which has
the same effect.

This is less than 2 seconds. Have you interrupted the connection
immediately?

According to the traces, the remote server didn't return any string
(yet). What happens, if you call in a shell

# ssh -l swhitton  -e none athena
