None of our servers have CD/DVD It would be really suprising if any of that CPUs would make a difference. Have you tried a different USB stick? It is still totally unclear where your machines spends all the time. Instead of installation you could benchmark reading the sets first, something like: time cat /mnt/.../base.tar.xz > /dev/null and compare that with 9.x numbers. Martin
