Thanks for all the input on this.
On reflection, I think the problem as I originally stated it was slightly
different to the one I was actually trying to solve. Having thought about
it, my primary aim was to get the process described in this document

My download from Passport of "TSM_V6.4_CLIENTS_FOR_WIN.exe" is 280MB.
Sure, unzipped x32=701MB and x64=917MB so why not just use the
distribution file or build your own self-extracting. I used 7-zip and the
x64 client self-extracting file is 159MB.

The problem as I see it is the new "bundle" includes both x32 and x64
clients plus an installer front-end to determine what version you need. In
the past, when I downloaded from Passport, I was able to easily separate

I've been doing some playing with the new v6.4 client for Windows x64 and
thought I'd offer this up for debate. I've been looking at the relative
sizes of the unpacked installation media for recent TSM client versions.
v5.5 - 146 Mb
v6.2 - 424 Mb
v6.3 - 526 Mb
v6.4 - 680 Mb
