No, it doesn't have to be.

You can send large files by reading and sending chunks in a loop.

<pseudo>

file.open();
file_server.open_file(fname);
octet_sequence buffer;
buffer.length(32*1024);

while (!file.eof()) {
    file.read(buffer);
    file_server->put(buffer);
}

file.close();
file_server.close();

</pseudo>

HTH,
