Write File From Cache Really Slow?

Hi,

I'm downloading files via HTTP with 'load URL' and then I'm writing them to
disk with "put url... into binfile". Everything works fine, but it takes a
really long time to write the data to disk. For example, if I download a
12MB file into the cache, it takes well over a minute to write it to disk.

So two questions: (1) is there any other way I can get a 'loaded' file to
disk other than the way I'm doing it, and (2) if not, is there anything I
can do to speed it up?

Thanks,
