Subject: [MDT-OSD] Unusually Large Capture

 

My captures are generally just under 6Gb. This is Windows 7 x64 with Office
2013 and not much else. Today I captured a new wim and it jumped in size to
8.3 Gb. I cracked the wim open and I don't see anything odd to account for
this massive increase in size. What could cause this?
