Cool thanks! I did notice the DOS formatted \r\n in the protocol description. This is a much easier protocol than I thought it would be. I'll play around with the server & protocol for a while, this is a good method of bench testing my client side algorithms.

Thanks for all the info! Do you think you could give me a small snippet of that mcsets file you generated? I've only scanned over the protocol a bit, but I'd like to do a few tests in my environment too. I didn't think I could use netcat directly on the server, that's pretty cool. :-)

Checking the stats and spot checking was fine for me since I really just wanted to know how fast it *could* load them (on my machine, anyway).
