I take the cassette off the rear wheel every time. Most of my trips have been to high mountains - it's an 11-34 cassette. Leaving it on the wheel is too dicey in terms of causing frame damage and just packing stuff into the case, sometimes tight around the freehub. My frame is roughly a 60cm, so that may factor into how I pack compared to someone with a much smaller frame. (I also have to remove the fork from the frame...)
