Spreading out mining among pools?

Whats the most efficient way to spread out mining among different pools?

If you are using multiple GPUs, point each one at a different pool. Also, you might want to search this forum for "flexible mining proxy".

That I did - I see it (flexible mining proxy) has some issues right now, though.  Didn't know if it was as easy as running the miner multiple times using same GPU.

Yeah, you can run multiple miners on the same GPU as well.

I'll soon run a 3rd instance of phoenix on the same GPU to reduce variance and avoid pool downtimes...

GPUs are heavily multithreaded, this should not have any adverse effects (actually it might even run a few Hashes per second faster if using more than 1 miner/GPU!)
