I wasn't aware of this kind of limitation with standard input. Perhaps you can 
find some clues about how to fix this by having a look at the source code of 
[pv](http://www.ivarch.com/programs/pv.shtml). I often use it to process data 
read through stdin, and I have never encountered problems with large data 
files. Its source code seems very well written and easy to follow:
