Streams which are associated with files are fully-buffered by default,
so writeFile would generate the output in blocks. If you wanted to
change the buffering, you would have to open the file yourself so that
you could get at the descriptor, e.g.
handle <- openFile "log" AppendMode
hSetBuffering handle NoBuffering
hPutStr handle string
hClose handle
