USB Flash Drives can be pretty slow for reads/writes that are 
non-sequential in nature, just like harddisks. What you could do is try 
to run a cache-driver like LBACACHE, or to install a ramdisk driver and 
copy files over to the created ramdisk. SHSURDRV is such a ramdisk 
driver, so is RDRV (part of UIDE/UDVD driver collection)
