When I read data from stream returned byGetDownloadStream method, Stream.Read returns invalid value. 

See an example:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
       Sftp client = new Sftp();
       client.Connect("localhost", 22);
       client.Authenticate("TestUser", "Masterkey");
       var inStream = client.GetDownloadStream("/TestFolder/TestFile.txt");
 
       var buffer = new byte[4096];
       while (true)
       {
              int readed = inStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
 
              //Real file size is 388 bytes, buffer contains correct data, but reade = 163840(dec).
              if (readed <= 0)
              {
                     return;
              }
 
              var str = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(buffer);
              Console.WriteLine(str);
       }
}
Why "readed" variable contains 163840 instead of 388?
