greetings:

i would like to output a "large" 2d array of floating point numbers to a
file in order to post process with fortran subroutines.

using:

dat >> "dat.file" takes ~6secs. the data is in Mathematica input form,
though.


various other methods, including conversion to strings, 
Utilities`BinaryFiles`WriteBinary and FastBinaryFiles don't seem to
provide solutions.

my question is:

what is the current "reasonable" (not well-defined) method for array
data i/0 for fortran post processing?
