How does it work and what are the requirements?

I have a 4GB USB Flash Drive and Vista says that it is not ReadyBoost ready.

Read Speed: 8MB/Sec
Write Speed: 3MB/Sec
 
Documented in Tom Archer's blog, in order for ReadyBoost to function properly, you will need at least a 64MB Hi-Speed USB flash drive (which goes without saying) that exceeds 3.5MB/s for 4KB random reads and 2.5MB/s for 512KB random writes uniformly across the device. You will get more benefits from this if the capacity and small file size speeds excel the baseline requirements. Somehow, on another site, we saw 431MB as being the optimal level of capacity one should set for ReadyBoost.
 
Once more, don't go for it,waste of tom. Just google for the writeups, all say it's a waste of money ;)
