lives aren't 'based on' boot.isos, they're separate compose processes.

the non-live installer uses metacity as its window manager. nothing else
does any more, so it's not surprising the live images (which all use
other window managers) don't have this issue.

I don't really find them 'astronomically' slow any more, now that
slub_debug is left off most of the time. Slightly slower than regular
kernels, sure, but perfectly fine for testing. Is it different on your
setup?
