I think I have it more-or-less figured out at this point. I have one 37" main monitor and a 20inch off to the left.
At first I tried to split a bunch of Eves on the left monitor into tiny windows, and have them swap to the main screen when selected. This was worthless because as soon as you added a video feed it was impossibly small, even when placed on the main window.
Disabling Aero had no performance increase, plus, Aero is needed for video feeds. I'm running a i7 OC to 3.7, 12gb ram, sli 560gtx. I plan on having the other windows at min gfx settings and my main one maxed out.
What I wound up doing is splitting the monitor to the left into two windows. A bunch of Eves are then stacked on the top area, and swapped to the bottom when selected from the task bar. This allows a resolution of about 1200x800 and lets me use video feeds well.
The main aim for me is avoid actually interacting with a Miner window, unless docking or other mundane stuff. I'm aiming to perform all mining tasks from my main window - lazer control, asteroid targetting, cargo>orca transfers.
Today I will probably activate a Hulk and Orca account to get a dry run of mining with isboxer. I may wind up utilizing the feature where you can have a blank window and can put a bunch of video feeds in it, that will probably span the bottom of my main monitor. Since I'll wind up using two computers, ideally, I should have two big monitors in front of me, one for each computer. But I'd rather not give up my glorious 37", it's awesome for FPS and other non-multiboxing games...
