Maintaining framerate for data output as text file

Hi,

I'm working on this project where an image is displayed and
the user copies it using the mouse/pen. I'm basically tracking the mouse movements by writing it to a text file and also using printLn.

My problem is that when I make the size a bit bigger (it works fine at 1024x576) the frame rate drops to 18-20. My hunch is that since I'm saving the drawing session to a movie file, when I make the sketch size bigger, processing begins to slow down a bit.

I need it to be exactly at 25fps (to have 25 samples per second). Would I need to work around quicktime?
