Won't somebody just say that such an identity verification system is stupid! I had the "verify" problem a few months ago and wasn't asked to ID faces. This must be new. Scrap and try again! It's ok to mess up facebook.

it did say - 4gb. ans yes, i totally agree (re Superfetch)... even with XP, after loading an app once, windows was able to fetch the data again much faster the second time. They should have showed the tests from power to boot to tests.
