The reason for this is because rawWrite calls flush, not once, but twice every time you call it, on the underlying file. This is absolutely absurd, and is a massive performance bottleneck, especially when it's not needed because the file may very well have already been opened for writing in binary mode to begin with. In this particular example, it's flushing to disk every 3 bytes.

Just was doing some development and found this same bug. This is absolutely unnecessary, especially if the file is already open in binary mode. We currently don't store what mode the file is in, but we absolutely could (we are allocating a heap struct for this, no reason we can't store that). And only switch if necessary.

This should be an easy change and I'm kind of surprised this has been open for so long.
