Hmm, dunno about that, unless you're hoping for some compression
efficiencies in the cataloging. If you had three users which end up
with 1 megs worth of catalogs each, versus three users which each put 1
meg into a global catalog, you're still using 3 megs worth of disk
space. Though, you mightn't want several indexing processes running all
the time, unless they really had a minimal load on the system.
