Imagine the delay when having 400 gb of tablebases :) Let alone just the 3,4,5
man.

I used to have more than 500 gb, but something funky happened when my primary
drive died, and all the data got corrupted due to a fault power supply.

I am currently redownloading all the 6 man down and should have them all by the
end of next week.
