About using multiple liquidsoap instances, we recently implemented an encoding 
using an external process, mainly output.{icecast,file}.lame. 

The implementation works correctly in 0.9.0 and should be stable in the 
current SVN.

I would not really recommend it for production usage yet, but I was interested 
to know if this makes a difference when running multiple instance under high 
load.

Indeed, this encoding allows a seperate process to perform the encoding 
operations, which are clearly a bottleneck for liquidsoap's load. This could 
allow a smoothest liquidsoap run while encoding is done in a different process.

However, my tests on running ~10 instances on a dual core did not really show 
a difference, so I was interested to know if it makes a difference in your 
situations.
