How can you run two clients at the same time? I tried and when I try to login on the second it says I'm already logged in.
Are you using two different beta accounts?!

Running 4+ clients at once.

Im very sure this is how paradox and seatribe envisioned the game.

One thing that may help slightly is to set each client's affinity to different CPU core

If you're running a quad core processor or better try setting the affinity of each java.exe process to run on 1 or 2 different cores exclusively. I find this usually makes things better.
