Crossing my fingers!

Even with ReadyBoost disabled, it STILL writes the file (a speed test) to decide whether to ask you if you want to use it for ReadyBoost. It happens so quickly it is hard to see it. That is why I said no consistent way to eliminate that unwanted feature. Even if you can disable the test, switching USB ports re-enables the test again.
Linux has no such problems (yet).
From linux, no need to copy a file. Just touch one repeatedly in a loop (perhaps with a short delay) to make sure one slips in durng that short time window.
