Of course it could also backfire. People mind find this frustrating and just not log altogether. Disco has a low server pop as it is, would it be wise to try out things that might (even if it's a small risk) jeopardize it even more?
Then again it might be a good idea, more competition for the resources, more players involved in the actual mining process.
I might go with option one, but that is just because I'm an avid pessimist.
