Will do.

Yeah - that seems like a great filter! Im surprised I didn't notice that
before!

I've yet to do performance comparisons of the various file transfer
alternatives vs file size vs frequency of transfer - and I'll probably
employ different strategies for different contexts.

However, something I'd really like to make use of is
FileChannel#transferTo - as Im guessing this is probably making use of
something smart like sendfile behind the scenes - saving us running all
the contents through user space.

The command approach is one way to do that - but I fear it is fraught
with complexity.
The simple approach is to go with an explicit IoSession#sendFile, or a
filter which handles writes of FileChannels explicitly (like
StreamWriteFilter does for InputStreams).

WDYT?
