You're embedding an MSI inside an MSI? Wouldn't Burn work out better? A Burn
bundle can embed all of its resources into a setup executable. Will upgrades
still function correctly using an embedded MSI?

Ah, ok. Well, if the main thing is to get the size of the install, would
using Burn's download capabilities add anything for you (using the
DownloadUrl attribute on your Burn MsiPackage elements)? Such as only
downloading the 64-bit installer if that's what they need, or only the
32-bit one? Of cou

I'm often curious to learn more about 64-bit vs. 32-bit applications. What
are your reasons for targeting both architectures? Is it not possible, in
your case, to only target 32-bit? You say that there are 10% of files that

MSI for each bitness (32/64).
So this paragraph is not possible:
" One solution I tried is to create a transform that converts one MSI into
