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

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? ryan
