If you are "playing with it" then I can't help you. But if you are planning to really use that, I can tell you that anything above 1Mb is a bad idea when talking about web transfer. You should "chunk it" and transfer it by pieces. That means you will better off having 2 services, 1 for the chunked transfer, and one to do the job, after the transfer (you can do both with just 1, but having 2 is simpler and more flexible). I've been bitten (several times, I must say) by "large packets", even on internal LAN environments. The larger the packet, the longer the list of probable failure points along the way. Another important point is that if the service fails, and you have to retry, you will need to transfer the whole packet again, when using chunks, you will only need to re-transfer the failed chunk, and you can try to process what already transfered as many times as you want, without having to re-transfer anything.
