sftp already reads in chunks. So it is something different.

I wonder if it has to do with Andrew's work to have the protocol write in
"chunked encoding".

I'm guessing the code might actually be using "get_data_stream()" rather than
"readv". But I'm not positive.

If it is using get_data_stream, then it is actually building up a large packet
of data to send over the wire.

Having memory problems with 1GB of RAM seems surprising.

If he is interested in testing, I suppose he could try doing one of the:

bzr branch -r 100, bzr pull -r 200, bzr pull -r 300, sort of things to see if
that works.
