I'm hoping you don't precache that many, jesus. You played CStrike? The user needs like, 384MB of ram to get into a server on a single try. The preaches are so big and so many that it takes up so much time to precache for the average user. Figured I'd just have ya consider that into whatever your trying to do. Nothing more annoying than a complex mod precaching a billion things and having the client time-out during connect. Be careful... the game can also crash, I've had that expereince on computers with not enough ram to handle the precaches.
