I am not sure what you mean, could you elaborate?
If you have, say, a partition of size 2GB (lets call it sdc3), you can
use the device node /dev/sdc3 as if it was a 2GB file. Just configure
your program to use /dev/sdc3 instead of whatever you name your file
that is alone in this xfs filesystem. You could try that and see how
fast it goes.
