What Is WCF-CHUNCKING?

It's a project that makes it easier to move lots of data in Windows Communication Foundation.

WCF-CHUNCKING Is an open source project.

What for?

When sending large messages using Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), it is often desirable to limit the amount of memory used to buffer those messages.Technically speaking, the maximum size of a SOAP message that we can process in WCF is 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 bytes (try to buffer it:).

Chunking is a technique that splits a large message into many smaller messages. Since the messages are now small, we can use buffered transfers without worrying about increased memory use. Since we have buffered transfers, we don't have to worry about changing the security mode or channel shape. And, we can apply reliable messaging to each individual chunk so that a message failure only requires the server to retransmit a small message.
