What is the best way to send big data from a WCF service to a client?

Question

I have a specific service that returns a large amount of data. What is the "best practice and options available in WCF for this?"

This big data is returned after all filtering has been completed, so filtering is no longer required. Data may be in GB. I understand that there is a limit to the amount of data that the system can process.

But give the above scenario what options / alternatives you would recommend.
