Running E2 on multi-core machines

HI all,

I have been running E2 since about november and always have 2 instances running in minigui mode. I just click the .bat file twice.

My question is, since the stderr.txt and stdout.txt files appear only once in a folder, is it a problem to run both cores from the same folder? i guess not unless there are errors in both cores/instances running.

I guess the suggested way to run E2 is with a copy of the folder for each core, so the 2 instances don't conflict.

Is this the correct way to do it?
