Yes that is something I was hoping to test myself but you'll need a hi-speed flash drive and those are not cheap if you want 4GBs of it.

Flash drive = slow
You would be better off buying an 80 gig hdd just for the pagefile. even the high speed drives cannot touch a sata drive. Using a flash drive i think is more geared to laptops that need extra memory and are mobile.

Yeah the best speeds now are 30MB/s but remember that a flash drive(high-end) has almost no seek latency and this compensates, besides 30MB/s should be enough for average PF usage.

Edit:
The corsair voyager GT is the only high performance flash drive I know of available locally...
