Washing film and paper in Jobo

Allen Friday said:
The reason for the short wash in the Jobo: I rarely process just one tube. I put the second one on the Jobo for the water presoak as soon as the first is removed. I save a lot of time doing it this way.

That makes sense. I've only got the one 8x10 expert drum though so I can't stage a second batch of film until I rinse and dry the drum. I suppose I could drop the negatives in the print washer but I don't keep it setup all the time (sink space is limited) so it's just easier to leave them in the Jobo. I also skip the hypo-clear since I'm using TF-4 to fix.
