Howto: Increase multiboxing loading times on single computer. Up to 300-800% faster loading times.

How in the hell, with that rig, with a raid 0 setup with those hard drives, does it take 37 seconds to load Dalaran?

My PC has about half that juice, with a single SATA drive, and it takes about 10 seconds...

Still, I guess I could reduce it to 3 seconds with your fix

I have five wow folders all symlinked off the one main folder.

Works well until you need to patch. Then it can be a pain in the arse.

Easiest way to do it, is to Patch the main folder, copy it, delete the data, WTF, etc folders and paste yourself four clean wow folders.

Copy the WTF & WDB folders from your drone accounts and paste them into each folder. Then symlink the data folder from the main into each drone folder. Personally, I symlink the interface folder also, I just think its cleaner.

This does work well. My loading times are very, very quick.

I like it just because its clean as....
