I don't remember you mentioning that you were sending large amounts of
data over a pipe before.

The only time this is a problem is when the pipe is full.

And, yes, it is a known problem.

I would have expected that someone would have offered a patch for the
documentation by now.  I don't know why they haven't done that.
