In general, you do not want big wordlists for password cracking. They are often full of junk and bigger != better. It's far more efficient/effective to build a list that makes sense for your specific use case. Especially if you are doing a bruteforce against a networked website, you will never be able to complete a run with a wordlist that's 100gb, and it doesn't make any sense to try. Grab something much smaller and made of real common passwords.
Hiya, Ohhh now it makes sense lol, I guess now it was just the usual news sites trying to hype it up as a major leak with millions of passwords >.<. Thanks for your tips they are very helpful and make much more sense than what I had in mind. I'll try to look for something close to my use case rather than just throwing a huge list that isn't useful at all
