2 RC5 clients running simultaneously?

Is there a method to run 2 clients simultaneously? The reason I ask is, this way no time is wasted when sending the finished blocks to the server.
 
Linux will do it, but there's no real advantage. The amount of time it takes to flush blocks is less than the loss of resources caused by two instances. Windoze won't allow it to run two instances. In short - it doesn't buy you anything.
 
ALso if you only have on CPU each client will run at 50% CPU use...

What might work is to run the GUI client all the time without having it flush, and occasionally running dnetc -update to get a DOS box. It wouldn't help much at all, but it might be worth a shot.
 
If you are running Terminal server, each client can startup the client in their session and they will all share the total processor. I did it once just to see if it would do it and each of the 4 clients I was running each got about 25% of the processor time of the terminal server.

Not that there is any real benefit to it though 🙂

Plus, the client keeps crunching in the background while it is connecting to the proxy. I've tested it a few times on some really LARGE buff-out files. By the time the flush was complete, the client had finished 2 WU!!!
