I am in the process of doing a similar conversion, and am very happy with the
wix model of moving the UI to the bootstrapper application and having
smaller MSI packages for each application (or feature), chained. So I can
add my 2 cents, and others can provide more details.
When you use the Chain/@ParrallelCache='yes' the downloads are in parallel.
My observation is that my chain is 'installed' from top to bottom, but when
I need to make sure that the packages are installed sequentially then I use
the PackageGroupRef/@After attribute.
<Chain ParallelCache="yes">
<PackageGroupRef Id='packageId1' />
<PackageGroupRef Id='packageId2' After='packageId1' />
......
</Chain>
