Physically a 6x CAV blu-ray drive cannot read faster than 1.6 GB per minute which slows down to 675 MB per minute towards the inner circle of the disk. A game like Alien Isolation at 18GB install (I think it is, not sure) cannot install faster than 12 minutes, maybe 6 with compression.

I think the solution Sony chose is far more simple. Read from the blu-ray if the data is not available on the hdd yet. I've noticed a bit of choppiness and late texture streaming issues in a few games on first time playing, which disappears after the disc stops spinning. Update files don't interfere as they replace files on the hdd, hence the updates are so big nowadays. No more patching binary files, simply replace.

Oh, yes, yes.

DF also said there were "chopness" in the first play through.

But again, no information regarding the XOne start time for Alien Isolation, and what I´ve found for Shadows of Modor say it´s 20-30 seconds.

Also, no reference to Kotaku mesures since last year.

I think may be people realy don´t mind waiting 10 or 15 minutes to install.
