Can CP be run off of a USB flash drive? Say a 512 meg for example.

Reasoning, allows processing off of an available computer w/o actually loading it on that computer.

CPDN BOINC requires more space. See this <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=1038">thread:</a>
And CPDN does some intensive disk writing. That's supposed to be bad for USB keys.
