[Gmsh] File transfer between client and solver

Dear Gmsh team:

I am trying to use Gmsh as a graphics processing tool for a FEM solver.
This is not the usual way to use Gmsh as  a standard POST processor  
reading the files generated
by the solver.

The graphics data is generated by the solver and Gmsh draws them on  
the fly.

Enclosed is a short example file containing a C++ class encapsulating  
the services provided by the Gmsh Client.
I assume Gmsh is in mode -listen and the data containing the views is  
received through a disk file.
However, this method is not fast enough for large datasets showing  
the deformation process.

The question is:  would it be possible to  use a different type of  
stream to transfer the data to the Gmsh client?
Thanks in advance.
