Thanks for your testing. It would be nice to know if 64KiB is the new
default in Windows 10, or if the initial buffer size is somehow
determined based on other connection properties. Please let me know
what you find.

In my case SO_SNDBUF was the limiting factor; I was able to get 200x
faster uploads just by increasing the buffer size to 4 MiB. But then,
different Windows versions may have different characteristics here.
