PortableApps uses an NSIS installer, which has a pretty good compression ratio - so it's not surprising that packging the executables a second time won't help a lot.
The values I've measured (install time and size on stick): "uncompressed" 2:50 55MB "UPX" 2:00 36MB So it seems to be worth included into the "standard" U3 and PortableApps packaging IMO. What about putting the upx301w.zip file into wireshark-win32-libs so we have it available on the build machine and let the config.nmake setting point to it as default?
