    It is also worth noting that many USB flash drives have very poor read write performance when small blocks are read / written at random. (4KB random write speeds of 0.1MB/sec are not uncommon).

    The hash set creation and lookup functions tend to do a lot of random disk access. So this can be slow on slow USB flash drives.

    When you create a USB install there will be a folder in the USB install directory called AppData, which for the USB install acts as a substitute for the normal windows AppData folder. In this folder is another folder called hashSets which is where you should place the hash sets.

    Where do you need to extract the hash sets to when a USB installation has been done?
