Apparently, Vista allows you to use the high speed random access found in memory drives to cache your page file. At first I wondered how this could be faster than a high speed HDD, but apparently the random reads particular to a paging file make it more efficient to have direct block access such as found in solid state devices.
So, it sounds like this "works" to the extent that your page file doesn't exceed your USB drive I like the idea of encrypting your page file, though. :) Rog
