Max breakables?

Hey everyone, I'm planning on making a map that is somewhere around 80% destructible. The only thing that is stopping me is I'm not sure about the limits of Radiant and/or UrT. Does anyone know how breakables affect fps? I know a few don't do anything, but I am worried that many, along with lighting and people playing, may create some serious lag.

256 is the maximum number of brush entities you can have in a map. and yes, it will be quite laggy...

AFAIK, Antic (made by an FS crew member, can't really remember the name) is a "destroyable" map.

^ No it's not.

Depending on how you use them it's not necessarily laggy. If you got like a hundred glass windows it won't do too much since the entities don't even need to be updated.
If you're going for destructible walls or buildings, screw it. :)

ut4_turnpike_fixed i believe (not sure if that's the name, but if you really want to know i'll tell you), is breakable all over the place (with nades)

Well, honestly the idea started as making an open replacement for a map called t3h wallhack which was for private use only but was pretty popular. From there it turned in to all breakable windows, and at some point it became just a breakable map. So 100 windows might not be too far off from what I want to do.
