    Why is that,
    executing the toram step in bootup of antiX, copying 759 MB to RAM takes 3 times longer from USB than from DVD?
    You could search and figure that out faster than others can answer…

    Slow USB Port or Stick has low read speed. Or both.

    DVD is connected to IDE Or SATA depending on Hardware.

    Pls take a read, huge differences between USB 1, 2, 3, 3.1
    A lot of sticks do not provide decent long read speeds.
    Same goes for write once the cache is full.

    And CD DVD device read rates.
