I think we are talking about two different things. I am asking about patching the install.wim file that comes on the Windows 7 x64 DVD. I think you are talking about injecting patches into your captured WIM - using offline servicing.
SCCM will not apply patches to install.wim images loaded into the "Operating System Installers" - only the captured images in "Operating System Images" Yes, I too inject patches into the Image WIM between Build and Capture refreshes. The problem I am trying to solve is the 4-6 hour build and capture time that is done to create the patched hybrid image that is then used for client deployment. I would like to reduce the time it takes and increase the reliability of the Build and Capture task sequence. It is failing about 25% of the time and has ~ 190 post SP1 patches to apply and takes many hours to run.

Understand that some patches cannot be installed in offline mode. It is a balancing act between WIM size buildup and patches that cannot be installed offline that determine when to create a new WIM for deployment.
