Arrow Flash Preloaders

Does anyone know what file size of a SWF would be suitable to have a preloader? E.g: the minimum.

Basically, I have a SWF at 380KB so do you guys think this will need a preloader?

er......between 100 and 300KB should be ok....as it wouldnt take too long to download, however, use maximum compression in flash to ensure smallest-possible file size.

It depends on the connection... you could add it just in case.
