The mearsurement of the bytearrayoutputstream is bytearray.length
The other one is harder to come by. It is Socket.getInputStream.available() I
believe. I don't have the code snippets here. Someone here suggested that it
might be the EOF marker on the output stream. I believe I closed the stream but
I will have to check.
