 Hamish has indicated that a target of 3.2GB image may work better for usb
 sticks of 4 GB, partly to leave adequate space for users to save their own
 data. Calculating a 2x compression factor that means we would need to trim
 500-600 MB from the current virtual machine to reach that goal. I think
 targeting 4.0 release for this feature would be good. This may coincide
 with simplification of the example datasets into one common pool and
 reducing size of some samples like the postgres medford database.
