Efficient way to get multiple game stats for a user? (CMsgClientGetUserStats or equivalent)

[ABaumher]

The code i'm looking at sends multiple CMsgClientGetUserStats, one for each game in the user's catalog. The goal is to get achievements, play time, etc. It works, but if the user has 1000+ games, that's a ton of messages sent to back and forth, and suddenly we have 1000+ tasks to wait on. We can simply start them async and await them after everything else finishes so we aren't bottlenecked by all these results, but is there a smarter/more efficient way?

One of our developers had the clever idea of sending a large "multi" message that packs these together so we don't have a whole mess of them, like the ones Steam sends us on occasion. Is this possible, and if so, would it be worth it?

Last I checked, you can only receive a Multi message, you can't send one - i.e. if you send one, the servers will ignore it.

(I know, because I tried sending a zip bomb to the servers once.)
