Who is responsible for that mess?
Have you checked the CPU activity, say with Task Manager?
if it is high and you don't get real bandwidth, it indicates you are wasting lots of CPU cycles.

Here are some pointers:

1.
Every iteration of the while loop, you create a new buffer (even when no data available); you read data into it, then trim the entire buffer, i.e. you scan all of it to find out it is empty or only partially filled, whereas Read did return the exact length.

2.
Every iteration of the while loop, you perform an enc.GetBytes() on a string that is always growing; however you already know the previous length, and how much got added. IMO you don't need GetBytes at all.

3.
StringBuilder is said to be cheaper than string for a sequence of operations. However, when it needs to grow, it doubles its capacity by allocating a new array and copying all the data; you can create a StringBuilder with a specific initial capacity, reducing/avoiding the need for such copies.


Suggestions:

1.
with ASCII encoding, what would be the difference between the number of bytes received, and the number of characters in the final text?

2.
throw your code away, and start afresh.
