SWAR Plotman temp2 question

Does anyone have the technical details of how the temporary2_directory value works as set in the config.yaml??

My understanding is that it uses temp1 for stages 1&2 and then temp2 for stages 3&4. Here is a reddit about it https://www.reddit.com/r/chia/comments/mgrw36/how_does_2nd_temp_dir_work/.

That’s great thankyou!, currently playing with that to see if i can offload IO contention on my only fast Temp(SSD) - looking promising so far - but tie will tell
