    If you removed a map cache and the game still starts, I wouldn't worry. The -modcache folder is in gmod9/mods, and once you remove it, the game will rebuild it. The game will take 3-4 minutes (or even longer, depending on your computer) to start once you remove it, but this is only to rebuild the modcache and once its done, you won't need to do it again unless you remove the modcache again.

    it is:

    Code:
    Program Files\Steam\steamapps\SourceMods\gmod9\mods
    In the "MODS" folder, you find the "-modcache" folder..
