How large is "large"? Just curious! I didn't address file size at all in the requirements yet, but I think it may help to think about what we mean by "large" and "small". I have heard of some companies where it is not rare for an email attachment to be 2G! > so they > must go "trough" and not get saved as whole somewhere. I'm not sure what you mean by "go through and not get saved as a whole somewhere". Does that mean the file never even exists on the sender's device, that it doesn't get stored in the middle somewhere? And part of what we need to consider is how many potential recipients there might be. If there are lots of recipients, a technology like torrent is probably more appropriate.
