The Graphics Plugin has been designed to enable several users to edit, scrub the timeline and render at the same time. Users should have a responsive system and each requires their own state on the Viz Engine. Viz Engine has its own built-in multiplexer functionality.

When fine-tuning performance, it's important to take into account that testing on a single machine will not give the full answer as to how things will be when all machines are working at the same time. In a video editing environment, one can also assume that big video files are also transferred over the network, taking up a certain amount of the network capacity. The Graphics Plugin performance tester will only test speed for one user, so the real test is to a run a test that uses several users once everything works fine for a single user.
