We are aware that doing bulk data transfers is slow with Mono, and this
seems to be an issue of the stream implementations.  Someone mentioned
that a possible optimization was to avoid copies in our IO stack if the
size to be transfered was aligned and was a full page (a nice constant
basically).

It is worth tuning this, because it impacts the overall performance.
