any reason why X server per app?

 
An wise Scandinavian old man once said: "in the end, everything is going to be 
alright"

Subject: Re: Two X servers, one box
 

What I'm trying to do is run a single visualization application per X server to 
enable distributed rendering of some very large scientific datasets.  Each 
application uses the hardware to render its piece then composits it with the 
other programs on the cluster via TCP/IP.  
So basically instead of "xterm" below there will be 
"//usr/local/tools/ensight-92/bin/ensight92.client -some fancy -args"
