How to change Message size restriction on CSOM file upload (Sharepoint 2013)

When I am uploading a file bigger than 2 MB with CSOM to a Sharepoint 2013 list i get the following error:

 "The request message is too big. The server does not allow messages larger than 2097152 bytes."

To change the limit to 5 MB you need to open the powershell and:

$ws = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebService]::ContentService
$ws.ClientRequestServiceSettings.MaxReceivedMessageSize = 5242880
$ws.ClientRequestServiceSettings.MaxParseMessageSize  = 5242880
$ws.Update()

Like all good recipes finish with a iisreset :)
