This more or less an issue how an application is actually implemented.
Due to some limitations of the networking layer on the NewtonScript
side, it is highly desirable to know the size of the object to download
beforehand. Otherwise, you might have to read one byte at a time. I
guess NewtFTP does that. Another issue is where you're storing the
data. Heap (application working area) is fastest, followed by internal
storage, then memory cards.
