Probably weaker.  Less memory available than to a single process.  Less cpu
cycles available than to a single process.

If you run one after the other, however and use the best choice, I'll bet that
would be stronger.

On the other, other hand -- if you have gobs of memory and two or more CPU's it
probably will be much stronger.  There just are not very many machines set up
that way.
