What is the benefit of having two slaves on the same machine? While it is possible to share indexes across nodes, it isn't recommended, as you'll need to know what you are doing, and will be deviating from the norm which will make your life (much) harder.
I really don't see how there's a benefit running a slave and its master on the same same hardware.
