A lot of the LabVIEW slow installation performance is due to slow DVD drives and virus scanners that scan every single file on access. I installed LabVIEW in 1/4 the normal time by copying the data from DVD to hard drive first, and disabling the on access virus scanning while installing.

I think your assumption that slow installation means a lot of registry changes is specious.
