How can I disable the automatic ReadyBoost test in Windows 7?

How can I disable the automatic ReadyBoost test in Windows 7?

Whenever I request the Properties dialog (which includes a ReadyBoost tab)
for a flash device in Windows 7, it does an automatic test to determine
whether the device is suitable for ReadyBoost.
I never want to use ReadyBoost. This is an unnecessary delay, and
potentially a cause of unnecessary writes to devices that can only take so
many writes (admittedly a lot) before they wear out.
Is it possible to disable these automatic tests, e.g. with a registry hack?
