Why do you even bother posting numbers, when multiple people have told you that the numbers you post are meaningless?
As long as you throttle the writer by not reading data in a timely fashion (by using poll() or select() in the main loop and reading when it's available), and you continue to talk about "data read intervals", all your numbers are CRAP.
OF COURSE a temp-file will work better, because then you basically have an infinite buffer, and data read intervals don't _matter_. But we've tried to tell you that this is not because temp-files are better, but because your reader artificially throttles the writer for a pipe.
