[erlang-questions] Slow UTP packets

[Rob Elsner]

I am doing nearly an identical thing and record a 35Mbps multicast UDP
stream (~4MB/s) just fine.  The difference is I don't use io:write, I
use file:write.  I've had the file in raw mode and that works as well.
 I also use delayed_write, but in either case it works fine.

I think you might be hitting an issue using io:write.  Is there a
chance you can use file:write and see how that performs?
