You don't need your own user.

The rest is correct. (Though you can hardlink the installation.) And you can disable self-update, though it does it by default.

Ah right, I've forgotten because I'm using a multi-user strategy and a patched version of the runner at this point anyway. The config directory for each runner is normally based on its install path (insane), something like that?

Hard-linking and running concurrent self-updates, sounds like a recipe for disaster.
