Sending Large Block Sizes slow #192

Hello Glenn! Great library so far but I ran into trouble sending large amounts of data on a reliable ordered channel with block messages. I need to send a few MB of data initially and I am not really sure how to approach this. It took over 30 seconds on LAN to send only a few MB! Also apologies for opening an issue have no idea where else to ask this. Any hints in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Just change the configuration of the channel to have larger packet sizes, and a larger slice size. This will get the data sent down faster. -- cheers
