maybe Jukka can shed some light on this.
Yes, that's true. The current implementation just slurps the entire
binary stream into memory and passes it over the network as a one big
byte array. The reason for this is simplicity and minimum amount of
network roundtrips, but the downside is the obvious limit on stream
sizes. A buffered "RemoteInputStream" is probably the best solution to
this problem. I'll take a look at this tomorrow.
