I'm glad I don't need to ... :-) I just raised recbuf to a higher value 
and now I'm happy :

with {recbuf, 10*1024*1024} transfering 113 MB of data :

Incoming connection accepted.
Received 113468091 bytes in 2619.79 ms.

That's 43 MB/s, about the read-speed of my hard-disk. Beam now only 
takes about 75% CPU during the process.
I should have thought about that one. Sorry for the noise !
