Has anyone got any comments about using dual heads

I just want to put meters, qjackctl and gamix or whatever mundane
things on on monitor and keep the stuff I am fiddling with on the main
pain.
I'll use xbox window management and the ccrma low latency patch.
Pentium m 2.0 GHZ(not optimal I know but its what I have) and FC3 ccrma.
Is this going to be slow?
Shouldn't be, the Pentium M's are better for audio work (IMHO) than
pentium 4's, due to better denormal handling, and can do more
clock-for-clock.
With dual heads the performance of your graphics card and its drivers will
be more critical.
