File to MemoryStream

ok, I'm trying to make my aplication faster, and the main time sink seems to be in the code that is reading the file and putting it into a MemorySream.

what would be the fastest way to read a file into a MemoryStream, when the file read is done over a network?

Read in chunks (say about 32K), and write each chunk to the
MemoryStream. Don't forget to only write what you've read - use the
return value of Stream.Read to find out how much you've read.
