Thanks for sharing your experience. We have multiple slaves for load
balance (performance reason) and failover(in case one server dies or
hung). 

Thanks

I'm not sure about 'best' practices, but I can tell you my experience...

We have a master and single slave on the same server using the same 
index.  Since it is the same index, there really is no 'distribution' 
scripts, only something that periodically calls 'commit' on the slave 
index.  This is working great.

I can't think of any reason to have more then one slave server on the 
same machine.  What are you trying to do?
