   I boot live from USB (2 not 3) and my desktops are not 'robust' but   
   typically have 8G of ram, so the live runs in ram, which is fast.  Long   
   long ago I used to boot live from optical, slow.   
      
   My current USB strategy is Ventoy so that I can put a bunch of .iso/s on   
   one stick.
