There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

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!)
