I'm asking myself whether it was a wise decision to move to MSI.

Thanks,
That's exactly kind of info I needed.
1. Seems that -sh is a solution for me. I don't use Windows Installer
for
upgrades. It's always a full install.
2. I generate single WiX file

I don't think I can avoid compression
This is probably more Windows Installer question than a WiX specific.
