Subject: net/ftp is CPU bound

I was noticing the other day that FTPing large files over fast 
connections like a 100 megabit ethernet inside a LAN causes my CPU usage 
to go to 100% in no time, and I'm running a P3 933.  I was wondering if 
it would be good for me to add put/getbinaryfile and put/gettextfile 
procedures that don't pass their data to blocks and perhaps memory map 
and/or buffer their transactions.  If this is a good idea, what should 
the procedures be named
