Just run into this thread as I'm building my 32gb slave.
Needless to say I too would love to see this feature when I could just use the same 30gb template and keep it on all the time.
I'm glad that Herb is working on it.
DG, I thought you were jocking about 16gb loading in 30 seconds. Currently I have to wait for about 3 minutes for 1.5gb to load on my dual core 2 duo 2gb pc.
